It makes WAAAAYYY more sense from an efficiency, accuracy, and shareholder value standpoint to replace CEOs with AI than it does workers. AI is great at synthesizing massive amounts of data and selecting the best course. It is fucking terrible at anything involving that requires humanity.

Did you know that before Nixon and Reagan, health insurance companies in America were non-profit? Yep, they screamed about "socialized medicine" and gradually shifted the focus of our entire healthcare system from public welfare to... making bucks off illness.

bad actors like wurman are why i think it is important to place the birthright clause in the full context of section 1 and section 1 in the context of both dred scott and the two decades of antislavery and abolitionist agitation and political thinking that proceeded it
The evidence is the text. All you have to do is read the Constitution.

The policies of the current administration are going to make America into one of the “third-world” countries the same administration despises so much. All the available wealth, power, and resources in the hands of a few ruthless lunatics while an unaccountable stooge demands fealty or else.

I don't care if a non-disabled person accesses a disability accommodation for the same reason I don't care if a child whose parents are rich gets free lunch at school. We don't need to means test being a kind person. I have better things to do with my time than be a cop over social services.

The way the right is giddy over cutting SNAP benefits is really nasty to see. All of their actions strengthen the case for UBI. Medicare for all, UBI, ban companies from owning single family homes, make them divest, declare energy prices a national emergency and go all in on renewable energy.
