Anti-Nuclear Year-end Occupy@METI Tent

As we all know, many of us had a difficult year and have a diffcult year ahead as the world economy continues to shrink. It seems like the big corporations and a handful of filthy rich are spending a nice celebratory holiday season.

Threatened by the ongoing nuclear power plant disaster and future employment, job prospect and other hardships, we see no brighter future. We are supposed to be the majority, but our government doesn't seem to hear us.. Where is our voice?

Come join our Occupy movement at METI from Dec. 30-Jan. 3.
