Here @jkandiyali.bsky.social and I start with the election of Zohran Mamdani as Mayor of New York City, and from there talk about justice, alienation, Rawls, Marx, and why we only *partially* agree with Joe Heath ...

Ahead of the Budget, good to see this briefing from @acadsocsciences.bsky.social & @fairness.bsky.social, looking at how high levels of inequality hold back the UK economy. The briefing draws on the report on wealth taxes that Howard Reed and I published last month. 1/2👇

Community Wealth Building transforms local economies based on communities having direct ownership and control of their assets. It challenges failing economic development approaches, addressing inequality at its core. Check out our U.S. Action Guide: www.democracycollaborative.org/community-we...

That any of us have to care about the messy breakup of these two massive narcissists — and that they both individually wield such massive power — is an indictment of our political system and further proves the poisonous influence of Big Money on our democracy.
