Unpacking economic myths! "Taxpayer dollars" rhetoric has racist roots & blocks public good. The real crisis? Private household debtโ€”not national debtโ€”crushing families. ๐Ÿ’ก๐Ÿ’™๐Ÿ—ณ๐Ÿ’ฐ https://thedeficitdelusion.substack.com/

I hate it when people say minimum wage jobs are entry level jobs or jobs for teenagers.

That is not what minimum wage was designed to be. It's supposed to be the minimum salary to lead a decent life--not just survival

The only violence Iโ€™ve been seeing in Portland is from the so-called Feds!!!

The level of kleptocratic corruption in this regime is breathtaking, e.g.:

โ€”Selling off Freddie Mac & Fannie Mae to big banks

โ€”Bribes from ABC & CBS

โ€”TikTok sale to Ellison

โ€”Everything Qatar: the plane gift, the Idaho military base

โ€”Whoever has bribed him by buying his scam meme coins

Unsure how many times I have to repeat it, but health care shouldnโ€™t be for-profit.

Federal immigration operations target San Diego neighborhoods, sparking community resistance Federal immigration agents conducted operations in Logan Heights and Southeast San Diego on Friday, with community members capturing footage of the enforcement actions.

The homeowner told agents she would not allow them inside because the warrant they presented did not include her address and lacked a judge's signature.โ€

Make that make sense.

There's no "regular politics" anymore because you can no longer maintain the idea that we all agree on common goals but we only differ about the means of getting there or whatever. The guys in charge now are plainly amoral, sadistic nihilists. They delight in it! You can't civilly disagree with that

Trumps head of operations for the war being waged in Chicago is openly trying to channel the supposedly masculine imagery of the Nazis

Make no mistake these domestic enemies waging war against the states are Nazis.

Bovino is really trying to sell its aesthetic now.

There is absolutely zero chance that a man who took $50,000 in cash in a paper bag from an FBI agent on camera would have been appointed to any position by any other president.

Relying solely on a reptilian brain to accumulate resources by paying no regard to life, to the planet, to humanity and to be willing to eat your own babies is outlier behaviour and is dumb. What is also dumb is thinking you have no choice but to endure it.

Because we're between M's games:

The U.S. government is supposed to be a representative democracy. People call it a republic too. Accurate.

It is currently neither of those and it's past time we admitted it to ourselves. Out loud. Using things like the f-word. No, not that one, the worse one.
