wearethe99percent: I grew up in a mill town in West Michigan The mill closed 15 years ago after a corporation purchased it to “eliminate competition”.  Hundreds were unemployed as a result. I went to college so I wouldn’t have to work in a car parts factory like the majority of friends I went to High School with who come home coughing up blood after working 11+ hour shifts. Graduated with a 3.4 GPA and $40,000 in debt. Unemployed and living with my mother who makes $12,000 a year. Wal-Mart wouldn’t hire me, saying I was OVERQUALIFIED. My Dad is in his mid-60s and nowhere near retiring. My credit is shot due to unpaid medical bills. I will never own a house. I lost the majority of my belongings in an apartment fire last year.  The landlord neglected to put in either fire detectors or a fire extinguisher in the building.  He has evaded all my attempts to recover my $600 security deposit. I have $2.85 in my bank account. Despite this, I consider myself one of the fortunate members of the 99% OCCUPY WALL STREET OCCUPY EVERYTHING
