A group of @Fwd_Party supporters that intend to promote grassroots organizing, intraparty democracy & progressive goals by way of a #ForwardParty caucus.
We can end poverty, grow food for everyone, make electricity too cheap to meter, reverse climate change, end war & also use AI to build a wonderful future 🌅
None of these are mutually exclusive
We simply need to successfully implement enough solutions to our problems ⚡️
What if individual liberty & social justice weren't at odds, but two sides of the same coin?
That's the driving question behind #ProgressiveLibertarianism.
This thread explores the history of this powerful ideology & its vision for a freer, fairer world. 🧵
🪙💐🌎
Let’s provide for every human being their basic needs! 🤩 Let’s widely disburse opportunities so that everyone can reach their potential. 💪
Remember, freedom & justice are intertwined.
🗽��⚖️ Support both individual liberty & social egalitarianism.

@chrislhayes Lower the age to vote to 16… in municipal and county elections.
The age to vote in state elections should be 20.
The age to vote in federal elections should be 24.
Anyone who completes at least 1 year of military duty should have age restriction on their vote exempt.
This opinion piece by @MaryAnnaMancuso includes a few comments that seem mean-spirited to me, but her criticism is valid. 😮💨
The Forward Party will have a much easier time as a change-maker after it affirms a national policy platform.

"Many of the tasks in white collar land will look very different in the next 5 to 10 years…There are going to be a serious number of losers and they will be very unhappy, very agitated…This is a political and economic measure we have to start talking about in a serious way."

What does AI’s arrival mean for workers? Now on https://t.co/PjWTwI77T1 the author of Rule of the Robots technologist @MFordFuture talks automation and why high-end workers might be among the most vulnerable.
The Biden administration needs to put an end to this immediately.
Not only are a few states working to gut child labor laws, but the laws we already have are not being vigorously enough enforced.
"White Castle’s CIO is firmly in the camp of those who believe AI will change everything. As soon as a few months ago, she wasn’t. But when she asked a 150+ person crowd of operators, vendors, and suppliers if they’ve used ChatGPT, more than half raised their hand. 'All of you are beginning to realize it’s coming.'"

Imagine if I slowly invented a machine that did the work of 10% of American workers. Would unemployment surge by 10% over that time? No, because the displaced workers would need to keep working in order to feed themselves, and so would take any jobs in sight, thus depressing wages and keeping productivity low. It would also depress the labor participation rate. - The War on Normal People p. 80
