Jim Devine: It's the pressure that causes the bones to be thrown, not the
benevolence of the 1%.

Probably the single greatest achievement of Occupy has been to popularize
and give content to the metaphor of "The 1%." That allows the coinage of so
many agitational slogans that would otherwise be so difficult to formulate.
All one has to do is stick The 1% in a brief phrase and you have made much
of your  argument before you even complete the phrase. For example:

Resist The 1% attack on Democracy!

Defend our homes against The 1%.

Stop the War Making of The 1%.
