Now that Time Magazine has named the protester as person of the year, it’s safe to say that somethings are finally changing. If 1 % of the population has most of wealth, then there is something wrong with the system. Could it be that the 99% are all lazy and are bad with money? Or could it be that people get paid more for being famous (like reality stars) rather than for actually helping people (teachers, police officers, etc..). People are tired of the system and want a cure for the 1%.
This is what inspired the Cure for the 1% design. The more recent Occupy Wall Street (and other city’s) movements have resurrected some of the feelings that inspired the French Revolution. It must have been quite a sight to see the starving masses drag aristocrats to the guillotine. For those protestors that are a little more old school, the “Viva la Revolution” guillotine design was created.
Both guillotine designs that were created have that unmistakable shape and texture of the angled blade made famous by the French Revolution. The text on each design appears to be written in blood, except for the Gabriel Angel Design logo which is semi transparent along the blade.
While you are deciding whether to be a part of the revolution, remember this: the way you look upon those panhandlers begging for change at busy intersections is probably the same way that millionaires and billionaires look upon us 99%.
