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.

Us? Three years of wedded bliss.

Me? Laid off from a job I loved in a voicemail with no explanation? (Unemployment never came through either). Now I work 50 hrs a week and barely make $25,000. Oh, and I drive 35 min to get there.

Him? Working full time and going to school full time.

I came from a rags to riches family but my parents make $350,000 more than I do at least.

Luxuries include a home, birth control and heat. Not to mention the ability to barely pay off our student loans (which are still accumulating)

Welcome to the American Dream..

BUT, I AM STILL LUCKY!

I AM the 99%.
