We Are The 99% – One mans’ story

One man’s story and why he’s one of the 99%.
He writes:
I am 62 years old.
I have worked honestly & hard my whole life (since I was 14) because that’s how you realize ‘The American Dream’. I was a home builder and designer.
In 1980, the ‘Savings & Loan crisis’ forced me out of work & out of business.
(The Government helped the banks survive…)
I slowly rebuilt my life & business.
In 2007, the ‘Sub-Prime Mortgage crisis’ crushed me again.
I lost my home, my wife & my belief in that ‘American Dream’.
(The Government saved the banks again…)
