Increase in productivity since 1979: 87%
Increase in hourly pay since 1979: 32%
Just so happens that ~25% of workers were unionized in 1979. Today? 10%.
As unions declined, the super-rich have taken a larger share of wealth generated by labor. We must build back union power.

The best way for Republicans to save money on campaign ads is to have have Democrats write and broadcast them for free.

It's no longer left versus right or even Democrat versus Republican.
Itโs now democracy versus oligarchy. Freedom versus dictatorship. Right versus wrong.
Millions are awakening to this new reality โ and they're speaking up.
The sleeping giant of America is roaring.

What is it? Does he just not care that 1 in 5 Americans have trouble buying enough food or is he too stupid to grasp the seriousness of this situation that he is responsible for.

Trying to protect yourself from the Trump administration and acknowledging the serious reality of climate change isnโt an easy act for the weak kneed apparently.

When I explain that boycotting an election over an issue has never once forced a politician to embrace that issue, I'm not "scolding people to vote." I'm explaining reality.
Feel free to sit on your ass! Just don't pretend that your lazy apathy is somehow going to advance your agenda.

Gates throws out health as a convenient smoke screen for the billionaires to continue down the rathole of technology with no consideration of cutting back consumption. They all think technology will solve everything.

The government is shut down because Trump stooges want to double health insurance costs for struggling Americans.
And now, because Mike Johnson hasn't even had House Republicans show up for work since Sept. 19, many of those Americans are losing food benefits.

Today, Mike Johnson will keep the House adjourned for the 85th day out of the last 97.
12 days of work in over 3 months.
With full pay and benefits.
The senate has been working, so this is not about the shutdown.
It is about avoiding a vote to release the Epstein files.

Back in the 1960s, the Smothers Brothers made fun of President Lyndon Johnson and his policies many times on their popular television show. The president wrote them a letter in response.

I havenโt seen anyone talk about how Jane Doe - an Epstein survivor - just sued the Bank of New York Mellon for funding Epstein and failing to file a Suspicious Activity Report. A Mellon heir is the one who gave $130M to pay the troops. Seems bribey to me.
