Do you know how much CEO pay has skyrocketed since 1978?
100%? 500%?
Try 1,085%
Meanwhile, the $7.25/hr fed. minimum wage hasn't budged in 15 years and the tipped min. wage has been $2.13/hr since 1991.
This is what I mean when I say the system is rigged.

We're about to live in a government of billionaires, by billionaires, and for billionaires. When these billionaires cut social services and institute austerity measures, the real question will be whether it snaps enough Trumpers out of their dopamine-induced hazes to recognize that they've been had?

I doubt Leonard Leo's SCOTUS would grant the same immunity to Biden that they granted to Trump. THEY decide. So you can blame who you like, but for me, the blame belongs with the court. No matter who indicted Trump or when, SCOTUS was not going to let Trump be prosecuted. Period. END/
