The only good thing I can say about the delusional fools at these occupy events is that they see and understand that our government has become entirely too corrupt to be worthy of governing. The flaw in their argument is that their remedy for the fact is empowering said government to do more than it should. I say, if you want the U.S.A to be a clone of Europe.....then move to Europe, and enjoy your stay.
Id have to disagree and say that there are liberals and conservatives, left and right wings there. Its a mixed crowd not all or even most revolving around a socialist ideaology.

And I dont think their remedy is to empower the government more and hand over more responsibilities than they already have. I am pretty sure its the opposite. They want the government having less input in our lives. They ultimately all do want the Federal Reserve gone which is government ran. That is the only common goal i see amongs the OWS people.
