I had this exact conversation with a woman on SNAP who said, things might be better if there weren't so many "leeches". "Just hoping I still qualify because food is expensive. "

My predictions for Tuesday's elections is a clean sweep for Democrats and democracy:

NJ: Sherrill wins.
VA: Spanberger wins.
NYC: Mamdani wins.
CA: Prop 50 passes.
ME: Q1 fails.
PA: SCOPA Justices are retained.

Saying,
"All politicians are corrupt." is a fallacy of critical thinking.

It's like saying.
"All birds fly."

There is no end to their hypocrisy and lies.

We more powerful than we think

Starting Nov. 5 there will be daily mass protests in DC. If you can come in November do that. If you can’t take a day to protest until December we will be there. We aren’t leaving until Trump is out

The failure point in the system is when the job loses crosses the line of consumer dollars needed to maintain economic equilibrium. Unemployed people make poor consumers.
