Occupy-linked activists rained $5,000 in bills off a downtown Seattle building Wednesday to protest money in politics.
#MicCheckWallSt, an affiliate of Occupy Seattle, held its “4th of
July Money Drop” to “[declare] independence from Citizens United,” the
landmark Supreme Court ruling lifting restrictions on corporate and
union campaign spending.
Video posted online shows stacks of bills emblazoned with the words
“Money as speech silences us all” and “End Citizens United” being
unloaded from a duffel bag and set up beside a window. A voice says “Go”
and two people begin hurling the money out the window, the bills
fluttering toward the ground. According to the Guardian, the bills thrown were mostly ones and fives.

Get a job...
What the bills should have had printed on them was:
This money was stolen in union dues from drone workers
