1. We are the 99%

as long as we recognize this and we recognize and support the Occupy movement we will make a difference. Don't underestimate the ripple effect. I wish I could do more than just show up occasionally, but the rigors of school have proven to be formidable. If I wasn't old and sick I could do both, but it is what it is. I can however, write/email Reps and attend some protests and other things besides just twiddling my thumbs. I am taking a political science course, to better understand how things work or at least how they are supposed to work. I am getting a lot of valuable information from that. In any case, what we can take away from this is that we have to empower ourselves and stand up to the system while we can still stand.
