[quote=Anonymous]I don't think this is representative of the 99%. While most of these stories are truly heartbreaking, these probably represent no more than 20% of our population. I'm not saying it's acceptable that that many people in this country are struggling, however, it's also not fair to suggest that this is 99% of our country. It's misleading. The vast majority of our country are still doing much better than the vast majority of the rest of the world. Again, I'm not saying we can't and shouldn't do better, but it's something to consider. And BTW, I do think it's absurd that 1% holds 99% of the wealth. We are upper-middle class and still worry about healthcare, a secure retirement, paying for college. I don't think people in similar financial situations had to worry about these issues a generation ago. [/quote]
