Summary 內容: "We are the 99%!" There is hardly a shared demand of the Occupy Movement which spanned across more than 60 countries, but certainly one point of unity: a common rage at economic and social injustice and the feeling that "the 99%" are being shafted by society's richest 1%. When 1 out of 7 people in Hong Konglive below the poverty line and 1 out of 6 Americans have no health insurance, the ‘third world’ is just around the corner. The speaker will share his views on the reasons behind local poverty.
