“Keep ‘em barefoot and pregnant”. (And uneducated…)
As Trump tries to dismantle the Department of Education, remember that his plan to cut the corporate tax rate to 15% would give the 100 largest corporations a tax cut larger than the entire department's K-12 budget.
Really think about how twisted this all is.

In the past, when presidents tried to trim the number of government employees, the result was not lowering the cost of the government. This is because those jobs were often given to private contractors at higher rates.
So it is no coincidence that a big private contractor is running this DOGE scam.

When I lecture about New Deal banking reforms, I note that some of the key measures — like Glass Steagall — were repealed by the right with disastrous results like the 2008 financial meltdown, but ha ha, no one will ever be stupid enough to kill FDIC and bring back the old bank runs.
Oh hell yes, let's absolutely get rid of the FDIC. Would love to have re learn all the lessons of the New Deal again.

Kroger and Albertsons claimed they wanted to merge into one grocery giant in order to keep prices low.
But after the merger was blocked, they approved spending a combined $10 billion on stock buybacks.
They each paid their CEOs over $15 million in 2023, by the way.

Don't forget that Dr. Oz:
- Pushed Medicare privatization plans on his show
- Owns up to $600k in stock in private insurers
- Has ties to pyramid scheme companies that promote fake medical cures
His main qualification to oversee Medicare & Medicaid is loyalty to Trump.
