The 99% movement swept the nation last year and America is still feeling the reverberations from it according to the 'Occupy Nation: A Glimpse of the Movement at Its Peak' infographic tells the tale of where and when the movements were the most relevant across America.
The nifty graph not only shows where it occurred, but when it reached its peak. In perhaps the most important place to have real and lasting change, Washington, the 99% movement is shown to be alive and well with its relevancy hitting peak just about now. The future of the movement is unclear as of now, but if it can move to the field of legislation, it may just have legal effect.
