The bottom 90% lost a collective $79 trillion in wages over the past 50 years.
Why? Because the top 1% ate up an increasingly larger share of the national income — so that $79 trillion flowed to them instead of the working class.
The greatest trick of all is trickle-down economics.

Greenwashing isn’t harmless—it’s dangerous. Fossil fuel advertising hides well-documented health risks.
Fossil fuel advertising isn’t honest about these facts, and it fails to inform people of the health risks associated with these products.

What year is this—really? A decade after the Trans Mountain Pipeline disaster and billions in taxpayer dollars wasted, we’re walking the same tired path again. Whatever environmental concessions the Prime Minister has gotten from Alberta is a farce risking BC’s precious coastline.

The irony is impossible to miss: Carney, the former UN Special Envoy on Climate Action, is now entertaining a pipeline expansion that runs directly counter to the urgent climate leadership he used to champion.

Lol, Zillow tried to rate the climate risks facing individual properties. The real estate industry *hated* it, precisely because it worked -- it made selling risky properties more difficult. So they rebelled & Zillow caved.
