I hate to say this but I love OWS also because they are the only ones that are giving the banksters hell for what they did to the US and global economies and being rewarded with taxpayer bailout, and bonuses while the rest of the US must suffer from their reckless behavior. Remember no high ranking CEO banker went to jail or firms shutdown. They are too big to fail and the rest of us are too small to save. Let the Tea Party concentrate on making big gov smaller and let the OWS kick the bankers in the butt and make them fear for their lives. Once the bankers are cut down to size we should deal with the OWS movement.

So is this the banker’s fault or the governments?

I contend it was all the fault of the government. If they kept out of it, bad banks, with their bad managers, would have failed, and there is your punsihment for bad bankers.

Why are we subsidizing bad behavior with the people’s money, and why do you want to make criminal stupid actions on the part of the bankers?

Refill that crack-pipe already. Nobama bought the banks with taxpayer money numb-nuts.

You really need to go back and read up on what happened. Barry’s gestapo dragged many of the bankers into a room and forced them to take the money. Most didn’t want it and tried to not take it. The gestapo made them an offer they couldn’t refuse. That commie piggy Barry and his clown buddy, Georgie Soros brought on most of this mess.

OWS aren't doing shit to banks. They were protesting the Americans for Prosperity conference and riots. They ignored Goldman Sachs. They ignored George Soros.

Don't be fooled by their title.

I agree 100%.

They’re only there because it’s the only way those losers can get laid.

Wake the hell up! The government threatened the banks to force them to give the loans to people they knew could never pay them back under the liberal socialist “American Reinvestment Act”

Whenever a conservative tried to rein in Freddy-mac and Fannymae, Chris Dudd and Barney Frankenfurter called them “racist” an the liberal socialist blocked all attempts to stop the forced loans to minorities who could not pay them back!

The banks and the bankers did the only thing they could, loaned the money, then sold the worthless paper to someone else in order to stay in business.

Stop spewing your liberal socialist talking points and look at the real facts!

I know it’s not a popular opinion here, but I see it about the same way you do.
The fact that so many bankers are still collecting salaries and bonuses is IMHO BS. I know one of the arguments here is that it’s governments fault, but I think it’s nearly impossible to separate government from special interests lobbyists anymore and that goes for both parties and a majority of all elected officials.
