Absolute capitalism is the belief that government should play no part in commerce. Absolute communism is the belief that government should have complete control of commerce. Socialism is the spectrum in between and balance is key. But, basic needs should never be exploited by capitalists for profit.

It brings us together and it does help.

And keep an eye out for the fun events that your local group does. I went to a great DSA event at a local bar. I think I was the oldest guy there. Amazing people. Unite.

Mass deportations don’t protect working people—they weaken labor standards, silence organizing and empower bad employers.

Just saying. This is my problem with the Salvation Army. Only my opinion.

1.) Any 'good works' a religion does in service of spreading their religion is manipulation.

2.) I'd rather support groups that want to provide help to people without strings attached or ulterior motives.

Trump is trying to reshape immigration courts to fit his mass deportation agenda.

In early December, the New York Times reported, eight judges serving on the bench at New York City’s 26 Federal Plaza—ground zero for courthouse arrests—were terminated.

It's sickening that Trump basically appears to think "Look guys, I'm tormenting brown people!" is fulfilling his campaign promises. And that there is anybody in the voting public who sees it that way.

DOJ has sued Maine, Oregon, California, Michigan, Minnesota, New York, New Hampshire, Pennsylvania, Washington, Delaware, Maryland, New Mexico, Rhode Island, and Vermont for access to its most sensitive voter data.

My firm has moved to intervene in 10 of those cases. We are working on the last 4.

We are 10 months into Trump’s presidency and Republican control of Washington.

The only major thing they’ve accomplished is Trump’s “big beautiful bill,” which kicks 10 million Americans off their health care, strips food assistance from millions more, and hands $1T in tax cuts to the top 1%.
