In 1949, Superman told schoolchildren “our country is made up of Americans of MANY different races, religions and national origins. So…
“…if YOU hear anybody talk against anyone else because of his religion, race or national origin — don’t wait: tell him THAT KIND OF TALK IS UN-AMERICAN.”

Imagine: #WealthTax just enough from #ElonMusk (net worth $400B+) to leave him a billionaire.
One robber baron's $400B hoard = 400,000 NEW MILLIONAIRES!
An ultra-rich life split into a LEGION 😉 of fortunes.
The ripple effect? Earthshaking!
Private property isn’t sacred if it hoards possibility.

Same with Talk TV and GB "News", 24/7 it is a monsoon of emotionally appealling fear porn.
Spewed out on every transmission medium they can muster, The newspapers have always been a heap of shit tho. Routinely misogynistic, racist, macho-bully propaganda that shields facists.

The whole RW has became a basketcase, they're that grubby for some power and control that they first require the hysteria/hate combo, so ragebaiting the universe is how they do. I see poor ole' Harry is in the media crosshairs again.

Robert Reich
The Real Reason the Economy Might Collapse | Robert Reich
The rich don’t spend the money they have, and the poor don’t have money to spend.
This is a problem when 70% of the economy relies on consumer spending.
Closing our nation's wealth gap isn’t just the right thing to do. It’s essential to save our economy. https://youtu.be/S6dCh48b4oI?feature=shared

What Does One Billion Dollars Look Like?
Wealth is also fairly abstract. What can one dollar buy? And how is a dollar earned? And what about one billion dollars…
Working min wage from 18-68 earns ~$725K. To make $1 BILLION? 1,379 LIFETIMES. 70,000 YEARS of work—back when humans were just leaving Africa.

Yep. Wealth extractors. They have to be. You can't earn a billion through your own efforts, physical or mental, alone. The use or exploitation of others is required.

Video shows Department of Justice official urging Jan. 6 rioters to 'kill' cops
The Department of Justice hired a former Jan. 6 defendant who was caught on tape urging rioters to "kill" police. The department calls him a "valued member" of the administration.
NEW: Police bodycam footage introduced at the trial of Jared Wise showed him berating police officers on Jan. 6, 2021, and yelling "kill 'em" as rioters attacked law enforcement. He’s now working as a senior adviser for the Department of Justice.

Americans are relearning the lesson we learned during the Gilded Age of the late 1890s, when robber barons ran the government and the economy for their own benefit: Oligarchy is incompatible with the common good.
I'm hopeful we'll respond with a new progressive movement.

Busting up big corporations and tackling Wall Street’s greed.
Getting big money out of politics.
Strengthening unions and fighting for higher wages.
Medicare for all, paid family leave, universal childcare...
This is the progressive populist agenda we need in America.

Knife robberies fall under dedicated new taskforce
Communities hit hardest by knife crime see a drop in offences and more weapons removed from the streets.
The number of robberies involving a knife, or the threat of one, have dropped after months of targeted police action in 7 highest risk areas, in new data out today.
The average drop is 6% but is as high as 25% in the West Midlands.
Clearly, a lot more to do, but efforts are starting to work.

That has been the case for a long time now. To apply for work, to claim welfare payments and everything to stay involved in modern life they are now a necessity, not a luxury.

US lawmaker says Nigel Farage is a 'giant manbaby'
"This is why we had a revolution against you guys"
It will probably come as no surprise to anyone that Nigel Farage has been called “unhinged” and “like a giant manbaby” after a tense meeting with US politicians
