Your Friday reminder that trickle-down economics is a cruel hoax.

Cruel because it's used by the super-rich to avoid paying their fair share of taxes.

And a hoax because nothing has ever trickled down.

You have to organize. I don't know what else to tell people. And organizing is not sexy and it is difficult and it matters that you be persistent. We need long-distance runners right now.

Wages of unionized workers are 13% higher than their nonunion counterparts.

But unions also set a higher pay standard that all workers enjoy.

In high-union-density states, median household income is $12,000 higher than in low-union-density states.

This is why unions are vital.

Went to the pool for their adult swim spooky summer night. Snack stand burgers were eaten, friends were hung out with, & Dairy Queen was had afterward.

Sometimes, being a grown-up means acting like a teenager with more disposable income & a vehicle with working AC.

Again, I’m surprised there is not a big turn out of the people to comment on Parks, Rec, & Culture fees.

I expected a crowd here at the Parks and Rec advisory board meeting on fees.

Jesus says he wants to sit in the middle of the table, and everyone should sit facing the same way.

The motion fails 7-6. But then Andrew changes his vote because Jesus has an ominous look on his face.

Everyone now sits facing the same way.
