A friend of mine from school posted a link on Facebook that I thought I should share with others. It’s to a site called We are the 99%. It contains many striking stories of those who have been impacted by the economy.

It’s some really powerful stuff. I’ve been fortunate. My parents and my brother have not. They’re making ends meet… but just barely. I feel for them, and worry about them often. This economic “downturn” has been devastating to a lot of folks. Read some of their stories.
