Purpose
In support of education, health care and job opportunities for all, as well as support of justice and financial reform
We are the 99% and have no specific leaders. This is a diverse group with different beliefs and interests but we are all one and the same. The system pushes us to give up, but this movement will eventually become too big to fail.
Just 1% of the population has control over the 99% and we will no longer tolerate the greed and corruption. The rich minority tries to speak for us and as Stephen Colbert says,
“Math is only a theory”
The 1st Amendment to the U.S. Constitution guarantees “the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances."
It has to start somewhere with somebody, so united we stand or together we fall.
