I'm mad as hell and I actually want to do something about it. Let's forget about being associated with any party. They only divide us. How about the idea of starting a new meme, like "99%" The "I'm 99%" includes l labor unions, l students, senior citizens and the list goes on. The idea of this new meme is to create an awareness that there is more of us, then the elites and that we do, indeed have a voice. Think what would happen if we had bumper stickers that displayed that meme, think what would happen if we introduced ourselves when we met others with a greeting such as: Hi, I'm Bill, I'm 99% or if someone asks about your health the reply would be: I'm 99% . The first step in changing anything is change awareness.
We could make lapel pins for the population so we could recognize each other. We could also make bumper sticks so we could "see" each other and honk in recognition.

I'm a 99% is not a meme.
we can make it one.
I did think of making 99% t-shirts...
T shirt is a great idea.
We don't need labels to recognize each other. There is a 99% chance that any given person is.
Of course not. It is a symbol to let others know how you feel. It is a way to increase awareness, it is a conversation starter.
Indeed. I like it.
there was also "we are the 99%". i personally like "the wall street party" for the irony.
