Yep, as Romney explained, those Corps are just people too.

So what percent do they want to control all things that affect Americans?
Say, it's 20% would they be satisfied? How is it different to them?

Historically debts are cancelled whenever new rulers are put in place. Jubilee traditions are specifically based around debt cancellations.

So you don't even know what exactly you want. This 99% percent thing has no meaning. It's just an empty slogan for stupid.

There are thousands involved, there are thousands of things they want, most of all, they want to have the freedom of ability to obtain those things. That you, and others, can see so many young people so disillusioned and not see that as a problem, makes you part of the problem.
