We are the 99 percent. We are getting kicked out of our homes. We are forced to choose between groceries and rent. We are denied quality medical care. We are suffering from environmental pollution. We are working long hours for little pay and no rights, if we're working at all. We are getting nothing while the other 1 percent is getting everything. We are the 99 percent.

Brought to you by the people who occupy wall street. Why will YOU occupy?

I am 19 years old and married to a hard-working military man. I have NO job, despite dozens and dozens of applications, and have not started college. I am too scared to acquire that much debt and have no guarantee of getting a job in this dying economy. I’ve been thinking of enlisting to regain some sense of self-worth, but even the military has suffered. I fear for my future. I fear for my future children’s place in this world. I am scared. I am lost. I am pissed. I am the 99%. Born in this world as it all falls apart.  #occupywallst.org
