Occupy Protesters, We Are The 99%
We are the 99% is the slogan for the occupy protesters who are camped out around the country. 99% is anyone not in the top 1% as far as money and income. The protest began as “Occupy Wall Street”, yet spread quickly across the country. People are tired of the big companies and government policy that does not show concern for those who are struggling. Prices continue to go up, new taxes are fees in cities and states are continuing to pop up, yet people are going without food, without medication just to pay the rent. Jobs are being lost, homes are being foreclosed on. Still the 99% are expected to help pay to balance budgets. More info: we are the 99%
