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.

>I am lucky enough to have been employed for three years at Publix.
>I am extremely fortunate to be able to attend a community college with a scholarship that covers my tuition.
>Forunately, I am still covered my parent’s insurance.

BUT

>I will never be able to live on my own. I live with my boyfriend, who lives in his father’s house, who breaks his back to work FULL TIME with paltry benefits. I have to watch him come home with aches and pains of a 60 year old man. He is 25. I have to watch him He was only able to attend school for one year before running out of money to do so.
>My father was fired from his job because his supervisor had a personal vendetta against him. My mother is an elementary school teacher. They have three other child to support, along with my grandmother overseas. I pay “rent” to help them pay the bills. It’s amazing that they have been able to keep afloat.

I am more fortunate than most right now but I don’t have a future ahead of me.
I am the 99%.
My boyfriend, my parents, my friends are the 99%

I want CHANGE, I want a REVOLUTION.
FUCK THIS SYSTEM!
