Democracy is an illusion! It’s become a political system fostered by the élite, for the élite, in order to fool the people that they have a stake in the system. In actual fact, they have virtually none. The whole political system in the modern era, despite having noble beginnings, is now used to benefit the few at the expense of the many. – Mark Alexander, June 29, 2018

Who Are the US 1% & What They Do? (2012)
The top one percent of the world financial pyramid is protecting the one percent and they are causing major damage to the 99 percent in the US. The US has been the scene of protests since September 17, when a group of people who have dubbed themselves the 99 percent began rallying in New York's financial district to protest 'corporate greed' and top-level corruption among other instances of social inequality in the United States. US police have used violent methods to disperse or arrest protesters. The movement has now spread to major US cities and other countries, including Australia, Britain, Germany, Italy, Spain, Ireland, and Portugal.
