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 23 years old.

I have a first class honours degree, and am $50,000 in student debt.

I am now $2,000 overdrawn on my personal account.

Earthquakes wrecked my city (CHCH, NZ)

There are no jobs.

I’m moving back in with my parents after being self sufficient for 5 years.

Even they are $20,000 overdrawn.

Where has my future gone?

I am the 99%.
