Robin Hood was right. For generations, as productivity rose, incomes and quality of life followed. Suddenly, productivity skyrocketed, 99% of incomes declined, and 1% enjoyed all the gains. It wasn't spoken of much; we lost our voice for a while. Now we've found it again, but did camping change anything? Whether you saw an annoying hippie drum circle or game changing heroism, encampments were only act one. 99% includes you, and our time has come. Come hear how we win.

Themes / Genre: music, money, security, peace, hope, equality, empowerment, system change, activism, 99%
