As predicted, the GOP is starting to crack on healthcare.

The next 7 days of the government "shutdown" will tell us A LOT about the Democratic Party.

Democrats have the leverage and they SHOULD NOT end it before 10/23/2025 (1 week after the Medicare Annual Enrollment Period begins).

Yet, most descendants of American slaves would NEVER get rid of their slavemasters' names or religion, spend money on Black businesses, live in predominantly Black neighborhoods, or attend an HBCU (despite their disproportionate successful track records of developing Black professionals).

Too long and too technocratic (Chuck's using a pointer and a Whiteboard to hammer home his message-- REALLY?).

It needs to be condensed into a 30-second ad that can be used in a commercial so that it can reach the people that need to see it.

Jason Garrett might make sense as Bill Belichick's replacement at North Carolina.

I stand corrected. She won't get sworn in until the 14th at the earliest (they're REALLY trying to hide these Epstein files by any means necessary).

In a perverse way, buying foreign products over American products (e.g. iPhone boycott) would actually go a long way towards reducing the corporate control over American society and government.

Here is another e-begging post. Sorry, I gotta do it. VOCA is not being funded. Basically, for the gazillionth time…I’m an internet nobody who has been trying to flee abuse since 12/03/2024. It cost $0.00 to #reskeet someone’s post. Thats it. That’s the skeet.

EXACTLY. When mediocre White people could no longer automatically get high-paying, great benefit federal government jobs over POC, the government suddenly became "incompetent" and "evil".

This why JD Vance said he doesn't expect a long shutdown -- he knows the GOP will be forced to cave.

The former. LAST year was the year for Texas. They lost too many stars from that squad (Banks, Barron, Golden, Blue, Mukuba).

The best way to reduce the influence of billionaires is to raise their tax brackets to 90% and create an annual wealth tax.

If this causes them to stop working, so be it -- they've already won the game. Moreover, $100 million (before state and wealth taxes) is plenty to live comfortably.

Your ten percent comment was misdirected and I tried to explain it to you but obviously it was to no avail. While I can assure you that my academic pedigree and economic knowledge are far superior to yours, at this point, I won't waste my time on your ignorance and insecure desire for the last word.

In truth, the Carter administration created the 401(k) in 1978. Nevertheless (and I've said this for years), it's the largest and greatest economic theft in American history.

Ted Benna rivals Milton Friedman as one of the most dangerous men in the history of US capitalism.

The 1% of Americans that are about to lose their jobs are a different group than the 1% that holds a disproportionate amount of wealth. If you can't understand that, then I don't know what to tell you.

The economy IS trending downwards, but the 1% statement didn't support your argument.

Long-only institutional money managers (e.g. pension funds, mutual funds) and companies that are buying back their stock.

Companies aren't even splitting their stocks any more (which causes a further concentration of wealth as it decreases liquidity and direct ownership by retail investors).

Three million people are less than 1% of our population. The REAL problem will be if/when EBT, WIC, and SNAP benefits are cut because poor people actually spend and consumer spending drives 2/3 of the economy.
