epresentatives can’t vote in the interest of the citizens because they are bought,” Anna Frangiosa said Friday afternoon at Center City’s Dilworth Plaza. The former resident of 11th and Tasker streets then waved an American ag bearing a “Join Us” sign on a march to Rittenhouse Square. Hundreds from the two-week-old Occupy Philly movement, a reaction to a plethora of societal issues, joined her. The excursion culminated their ninth day of attempts to convince corporations and government entities to place people before prots. The protesters believe so fervently in achieving resolution for their diverse gripes, nearly 300 tents line the area. They have chosen no spokesperson but maintain their idyllic setting through committees and trainings. Rain sheltered many members, but most continued promoting their “We are the 99 percent” philosophy, a reection of the disparity between the nation’s top earners and everyone else. Fans of transparent agendas might nd the occupiers confusing, as they have not solidied a concrete message, though Frangiosa said one soon will appear. “We want to be inclusive to all the people who are pissed off,” the theater performer said of welcoming railers against corporate greed, school loan debt and staggering unemployment, among other woes.
