at the end of the day, NOTHING will come of it.
The producer class is not going to give up what they EARNED to help out a bunch of whiners.
I support this movement (at least so far) and here's a little info about me.

You may want to sit down, as this may confuse you...

* I am not a welfare recipient.

* I've had student loans in the past, and have since paid them off.

* I am self-employed. In fact, I own a corporation (albeit very small).

* I haven't collected 10 cents from unemployment since I was in my early 20's, and even then, it was for a very short period of time.

* There have been periods in my life where I was working 2 and 3 jobs at once. Real jobs like landscaping, loading trucks, stocking shelves, you name it.

* I don't have nearly ANY credit card debt.

* I am not getting foreclosed upon.

* I don't live on the dole, in any way.

* When I don't make enough money, I blame myself for not working hard enough.

* I have friends who support the 99% movement, and their demographic is very close to mine.

Crazy, right?

Go figure!
