A quite recent political movement is ATTAC (Association pour une
Taxation des Transactions financières pour l’Aide aux
Citoyens), the international anti-globalization movement, founded
first in France in 1998, but now active in about 30 countries.
The "%" sign probably allude to the demand
for the so-called Tobin Tax, a global tax on financial transactions,
which is a central part of the ATTAC programs.
