Increase in hourly pay since 1979: 31%
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.

Iβm not sure what it is. A kidnapping?
The difference between Christianity and Christian Nationalism is a Pope who advocated for our most marginalized and a woman who considers him evil for doing so.

21.04.2025 17:33 β π 0 π 0 π¬ 0 π 0The #SupremeCourt blocking deportations might be just the excuse that #Trump needs to invoke the Insurrection Act.

If you think this canβt happen, remember that of the 125,000 Japanese Americans who were interned during WWII for years without charge or trial, two-thirds were U.S. citizens. Including me.
