The marchers planned to present oversize checks at each location to dramatise how much less the billionaires will pay when New York state's 2 per cent tax on millionaires expires on December 31. "While everyone else is struggling and being asked to make sacrifices to get through the economic downturn, these folks are actually being given more money to line their pockets," said Occupy spokesman Doug Foran. "They live in luxuryu00a0-- these folks don't need a tax break." The demonstrations, which began September 17, have spread to 150 US and European cities. Mass arrests Protesters in Boston and Atlanta feared mass arrests after police in both cities threatened mass arrests if occupiers didn't vacate city parks. Atlanta organisers planned to march to the Bank of America. The Occupy protesters say they are demonstrating against the richest 1 per cent of the population, who hold 35.6 percent of the country's wealth, and say that Wall Street greed has contributed to the global economic crisis. u00a0 Their demands include wanting limits imposed on corporate donations to political campaigns. The 'millionaires' march in New York is part of a new series of daily demonstrations leading up to Saturday, dubbed Global Revolution Day, when protesters across countries are calling for actions around the world.
