Occupy Wall Street: The Growing Phenomenon

"We are the 99 Percent" seems to be a prevalent and overpowering statement throughout the United States.  This refers to the 99% of people who are part of the recession currently being experience by citizens of the United States.  Many attribute the recession to Wall Street and have initiated various protests throughout the U.S.  These protests have even begun to spread through Europe creating an uproar especially amongst the youth.  A large percentage of these protesters are college students like myself who are graduating with insane amounts of debt as a result of student loans and are now unable to find jobs.  The movement aims to address classism and the affect that it is having on society today.  There is strength in numbers when it comes to the Occupy Wall Street protesters and their voice is difficult to ignore.  This movement is controversial and has been criticized by many- while many do not support to movement they are addressing some serious issues that pertain to classism and these issues need to be addressed in one way or another.  Whether you are in support of the movement or not, do your part, research the movement and create your own opinion.  The issue of classism affects everyone.
