Without the 99%, the 1% is NOTHING.

This is a SOCIETY. No man stands alone.

They won't leave Social Security and Medicare alone --

Let's give 'em ANOTHER TRILLION and maybe they will bring back some minimum wage jobs to this country; then --

Let's give 'em ANOTHER TRILLION and they might even allow GAYS to MARRY!; then --

Let's give 'em ANOTHER TRILLION and maybe they'll let us keep the Democratic president in office for another 4 years; then --

Let's give 'em ANOTHER TRILLION and maybe they'll give us back our right to PRIVACY; then --

And let's keep giving more and more TRILLIONS until eventually they finally give us back our COUNTRY; even though by that time there won't be much left to give back!

2. That's not really true
They have thugs protecting them and carrying out their will and unfortunately those thugs are "official" and have the entire power of the State behind them.
