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.

My Fiance was blessed with a fantastic job, he was making great money, yet we were still hardly able to pay bills. He got laid off just a few months after working, he is unable to get unemployment. He also got ran over by a forklift at work, but was scared to say anything. After looking for employment for 2 years, I finally got a part time, seasonal job at a local walmart, I do not make enough for our bills. We are being evicted. At 18 we are in debt due to our bills and we have bad credit now. And we have a baby on the way, I am due may 21st 2012. I am afraid to bring my child into such a horrible place with no hope for a future. My mother is disabled and unable to work, and she is trying to get social security, she was denied, she is appealing. I make about $600 per month, and due to my job being a temp position I could lose it at any moment. I am afraid. I am the 99%
