Occupy George is a series of five stamps that place an infographic about earnings disparities and how wealth is distributed in America directly on the most famous symbol of wealth itself. The project has been pulling all-nighters for about a week, printing on more $1 bills, and then exchanging them at Occupy Wall Street protests, getting more bills to modify each time.
"We feel like just the hard solid facts on the economic disparity in America speak for themselves so brilliantly," says "Ivan," one of the minds behind the project. "We feel like it would be really tough to not be moved to take action or support the movement if you were confronted with them."
