Does it make any sense—ethically, morally, financially—that companies are owned by stock holders instead of by employees?

We can’t afford to pay CEOs millions of dollars per year.

The legacy of Margaret Thatcher is debt, immense debt, more than £10tn.

Owed by the Government, owed by Privatised companies, owed by you.

Paid out to billionaires in fake profits.

Elon Musk’s ten-year $1 trillion pay package is worth more than the combined pay of:

Every elementary school teacher in America.
Every cashier in America.
Every restaurant cook in America.
Every farmworker in America.
Every bartender in America.

Insanity. Billionaire tax now.

Hey @espn.com
Your tag line for rivalry week —“Good, old fashioned hate”—is horrible…especially at this time in US history.

How about the common love of an exciting sport and the passion of student athletes?

AOC: "It is unconscionable that what we are debating right now is legislation that will give 8 senators over $1 million a piece & we're robbing people of their food assistance & healthcare to pay for it. How can we vote to enrich ourselves by stealing from the American people?"

Michigan State University did this 8 years ago. And mid MI isn’t the sunniest place. The panels generate 25% of the university’s energy needs. And now that energy is free after it paid for itself in 8 years.

This is just 1 example of how communities can lead.

Cost of abolishing university tuition fees = £17bn

Cost of making care homes free = £8.3bn

Cost of making trains free to use = £11bn

Cost of hitting net zero = £30.7bn

The annual cost of the above is £67bn, which happens to be the amount of money given in tax relief to the richest 20% of the UK.

What small businesses need is universal healthcare. For the owners and staff. People stay mired in large corporations just for access to healthcare.
Pennsylvania is driving out a new investment of $21 million — creating 11 business centers to help small business owners find the tools they need to grow.

From one-on-one business counseling to procurement support, these centers will provide helpful resources our small businesses need to succeed.
