We are so far in the hole as a country in terms of how we value human life. 2016 shouldn't have been close, 2020 shouldn't have been close, 2024 shouldn't have been close, yet at each fork in the road, half the participants chose wrong. We have taken our final breath as a democracy. It's over.

You can't be mad at poor people for needing assistance when you created the society where poor people exist in the first place.
-Wage stagnation
-Monopolies
-Dismal resources
This is the world the rich built. The only way to hold them accountable is to start taxing them fairly again.

Do these ghouls have no souls? Rhetorical obviously.
What is the lesson?? Are you saying, Mike, that being ill means you are a bad person? Horrific, horrific nonsense.
Republicans hate you and want to kill you.

We're on our way to hyperinflation and an economic collapse. Thanks MAGA. Wish I'd been born earlier so I could have enjoyed the prosperity of the 90s, 00s as an adult. I'll never own a house. I'll probably never get to retire. Terrified of what's next.

There's two options when it comes to AI. Option 1- make it illegal. It uses enormous amounts of computing power/electricity and takes jobs away from people. Option 2- tax it. If a business replaces jobs with AI, society should recoup that loss and pay it out as UBI.

Seen on Reddit, but it bears repeating.
Senator Mike Johnson says we can't stop Congress from trading stocks because they need to be able to support their families. Congress members are paid $174,000/yr. So by that logic, minimum wage should be $174,000/yr, RIGHT??

Excellent NYT graphic.
In the space of about 3 months, tariffs on China:
-- doubled;
-- went up ≈ 2.5X from there;
-- roughly doubled again;
-- went up ≈ 40% from there;
-- and now have dropped ≈ 80% from the peak -- but are still 3X what they were in February.

MAGA bitched and complained about inflation during the entire Biden administration, while the administration did everything it could to bolster the economy and bring us out of the COVID crisis. Now we have an administration seemingly doing everything it can to crash the economy and MAGA is silent.

How tf did we get here? The US government is occupied by fascists who denounce, of all things, diversity. I mean, holy shit. The racists are inside the house. They're burning down the house. God help us.

Allow me to address the elephant in the room: The decades-long outsourcing of domestic manufacturing to China was not an insidious Chinese conspiracy for dominance but the greedy strategy of the American ruling class to explode its profit margins by exploiting global inequality.

Imagine there's a lemonade stand. The kid running it spends $20 on lemons. She decides to stop buying lemons. Is she saving $20? No. She was bringing in $100 a day from selling the lemonade. So now her business is losing $80 a day and no one gets any lemonade. It's a lose-lose situation. Trump 101

If tariffs are good, and we're going to get so much money from them, and we'll be able to eliminate income taxes, why is Trump claiming he's doing deals with countries to reduce/remove the tariffs?
