Amazon just announced 14,000 layoffs. Its CEO made over $40M last year.
UPS announced 48,000 layoffs. Its CEO made over $24M last year.
Intel announced 20,000 layoffs. Its new CEO's pay package is valued at nearly $69M.
This is what I mean when I say the system is rigged.

Here is a comprehensive list of why people on SNAP, are on SNAP:
1. They need food assistance.
Thank you for coming to my Ted Talk.
The governments that starved their own people in need were never the good guys. No matter how much you twist yourself in knots to justify cutting SNAP when emergency funds exist, this is an act of evil against our fellow Americans by the Trump Administration and the Republican Doormat Congress.

(@TNDemocrats are imploring @GovBillLee to fund SNAP with the billions in reserves as other states are, but he refuses)
Team Newsom @governor.ca.gov is taking bold, concrete steps to reduce dependence on a chaotic federal health landscape.
California is now producing its own insulin through CalRx, an innovative and timely model that leverages their purchasing power to reduce healthcare costs for Californians.
There should never be shame in needing help from a food pantry. But this is gut-wrenching: working every day, not getting paid for weeks, and needing a food pantry you didnβt need before.
Whatβs shameful is that this is completely avoidable. Republicans need to get back to DC and negotiate.

You know when a credit card reader asks for a donation?
Corps use your π΅ for tax write offs & maximize their profit
Bet-theyβll use SNAP defunding to increase π΅requests for food donations
Donate π΅ directly to the Food Pantry or fundraisers & get YOUR tax write off
Make Corps use their profits

Hey Republicans, this is what caring more about your country than retaining power looks like in case you want to try it sometime.
