The Starbucks CEO can write-off the cost of his private jet on his taxes because it’s considered a business expense.
But Starbucks baristas can’t write off the clothing they have to buy to adhere to the Starbucks dress code.
This is what an anti-worker tax code looks like.
Happy Independence Day to the Dominican Republic! 🇩🇴
Today we celebrate the courage and patriotism that gave birth to a free Dominican nation, and we honor the vibrant Dominican community whose hard work, faith, and entrepreneurial spirit strengthen the United States and our entire hemisphere.
Freedom unites us and our bonds only grow stronger.

If you book a hotel for $200, you should pay $200.
Today, we shut down hotel junk fees and surprise credit card holds. The price you see is the price you pay.
I wish more people understood $4 coffees aren’t the problem.
It’s the:
- $650/mo car payment
- $300/mo credit card bill
- $1,800/mo daycare
- $800/mo student loans
- $2,400/mo rent
...This is why most six-figure earners feel broke.
Modern people have lost the art of hosting, being a community member, and inconveniencing themselves.
Throw the party. Host your relatives. Ask the person on a date. Treat your friends to dinner. Learn to cook for others. Meet your neighbors. Talk to the person at the grocery store.
This reminds me when I was at this Airbnb pool in Santo Domingo, DR.
A Haitian-🇺🇸 & a Black-🇺🇸 tourists were speaking to me, saying how astonishing they were that DR was very economically advanced compare to Haiti. How there were Louis Vuitton & Rolex stores which according to them was “surprising”.
I could see the sadness & inferiority complex in the face of the Haitian guy.
Haiti being next to the Dominican Republic have really done some damaged to the image of Dominicans.
Many use black Haitians to define the Economic, Historical & Racial make up of Dominicans just because they make border with Haiti
They don’t believe this is DR
La gente que nos gusta la Zona Colonial. Abrió un restaurant italiano excelente, Maialino, misma cadena de Il Bacaretto. Te sentirás como en el Little Italy. Sin desperdicios, vayan y “aprueben” . 🥘 🍷 🤌🏻.
