We Are the 99 Percent

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’m 30, unemployed, living with and lucky to have such a supportive boyfriend. I lost my job for a petty reason so my supervisor would ensure that she would have a job after the state agency “reorganized” itself. As it turns out, in Texas, they can fire you for not wearing the right color nail polish; however, that doesn’t mean I don’t qualify for unemployment… Does that save the agency money? I think not.
