Not one person on any ballot anywhere is part of the 99%, yeah they can use our key words and they can cry on camera to our plight but they have no idea what its like to go hungry, no idea what it's like to worry about losing your job, health benefits, house, telling your kids at night that you will have food for them tomorrow when you don't know how you will do it. Then being asked to fork over money because you barely made enough for diapers, food, rent and now healthcare. Wealthy people do not look at the ACA as a savior because they could afford it, poor people look at it as the hope they made enough to afford it. When in reality it could easily be covered by the bombs we drop on children in the hopes we killed a terrorist. But you know what, the ACA does not make money for the industrial military complex, bombs do.
My solution is go to your neighbor, the one right next to you, the one who has kids and ask them do they love their children more than they hate America. Because if they love their children they will want healthcare for them, they will want them to have an amazing education and most importantly they will not want them dying on foreign soil so some guy they never heard of can see his stock rise by 1%.
