#StrikeDebt Assembly, + Meeting With Quebec Strikers

Washington Square Park; meeting with Quebec strikers at 3 pm

1. Student Debt Assembly

We all have debt. Student Debt, mortgage debt, healthcare debt, credit-card debt, and more: debt is the tie that binds the 99%. Debt is the primary tool that the 1% mafia uses to extract profits from the 99%.

It is time rethink all of the promises we made, the contracts we signed. In mafia capitalism, the 99% goes into debt for the basic needs of life: housing, education, healthcare. Meanwhile the 1% profits and the banks get bailed out.
