I'm not sure what OWS is "against" or what they are for. They seem to be against "big business" but can't live without their iPhones, and they also seem to have no objection to paying $6 for a cup of coffee at Starbucks.

When this first started, I remember watching an interview where the protester was using an iMac and drinking Starbucks. She asked a few great questions, and then asked "Is stock in Apple up or down today". The protester was dumbfounded and failed to understand how the question was relevant. The next question was "How much did you pay for that cup of coffee" and the protester looked at him with stink eyes. It was comical.

So let me see if I understand this correctly... OWS is against freeloaders, but want to take the money away from the big corporations and the 1%, and give that money to.... People who haven't earned it? (i.e. "freeloaders").

That's irony in the strongest sense of the word.
