I worked 50+ hours per week for more than 40 years.

I am a Vietnam era veteran of the United States Navy.

When Uncle Sam bailed out General Motors they ended my job in the reorganization. We were told Wall Street employees had to get their bonuses because they had contracts, but thousands of auto workers contracts were broken.

I have been unemployed more in the past 3 years than in my entire life before this.

I now work for far less than my monthly expenses.

My health insurance has a $3,500.00 deductible and I don’t have dental coverage. My teeth have hurt for months. I can go to the dentist or pay my mortgage, but not both.

I am the 99%
