Assignment #13
We are the 99% and so is everyone else. One of the biggest questions I bet everyone asks themselves is what caused the whole strike? Why now? If the problem has been going on for many years now. I believe everyone should pay attention because they don't know what going to happen and if they do make a difference. Its going to affect you, so you should be a part of it. The only people that don't feel affected is the 1% because they are filled with money. The 99% are getting jobs taken away and losing loans. Which people can't go to school or do what they have to do in order to succeed. If you think about who are the ones paying really high taxes and the gas parcises are really high. In return we still get treated really bad. The 1% are not even affected by anything.

Assignment#12 Research
I. Introduction
The question I came up with is, what cause the people to protest now?, what tiggered the whole thing? The way I am going to catch my audience attention is by informing them how it affects them individually. Why they should pay attention to whats going around them and its even world wide. The main point in my presentation will be why did the people would start to protest now, if it has been going on for many years? Also one of my biggest main points is why did the people starting protesting in front of the library. If the library had nothing to do with it, in my opinion they should protest in front of big businesses. For example like in front of Chase and big corporations.
II. Body
one of my biggest supporting materials is from the Occupy Wall Street website. Which talks about how the movement is about everything. Theres is a march for jobs and economic fairness. The movement is based on issues of unemployments and unequal income distribution. They also believe that the middle class is being reduced. In the article it sys "Nearly seven in 10 respondents said the current tax system. A repeat said is partially responsible for income inequality is "unfair."
What seems to be the big issue to people is about the income inequality. The movement is more on GOP lawmakers. They have tried to complete and disqualify the occupy protests and stamp out any Discussion. The 99 percent is all the middle class everyone is getting their rights taking away and also people that have to stop going to college because corporations can't give them money no more.
The corporations add a private tax to everything sell. They would even charge income tax on all their employees and stockholders. People are mad and upset that the government doesn't do anything about this problems. All they do is stick around and let everything happen.
My main points are people just garthered together and form groups to protest about all the unfairness. Also unequal inequality . People are just tired of the government and not doing anything about anything. How all the middle class people have to pay the most taxes and stuff.
