Corporate profits only accounted for roughly 11% of price growth from 1979 to 2019.
Today, record corporate profits account for 53.9% of price increases.
Folks, corporate greed is driving inflation, not workers asking for better wages.
I've said it before and I'll say it again: Clarence Thomas has zero business ruling on cases involving Trump’s attempted coup. His wife was *directly involved* in an effort to overturn the 2020 election...Hello?
Even though #Haiti's US-trained & armed police have gunned down, wounded, beaten and arrested protesters the past two weeks, the people still courageously face them down and challenge their legitimacy.
Yá'át'ééh abiní. It's Friday morning, April 15 and I invite you to begin your #GoodFriday by joining me for two minutes to watch the #sunrise over the Potomac river. #WalkInBeauty my relatives.

@AngelaDavisMPR@MPRnews Son, 26 yo, applied to get CNC machinist program, but w his income of less than $40K, looks like his only 'aid' will be loans. How can workers go back to school if this is what they face when costs, including housing, is almost $20K per yr.
@KerriMPR Real estate in So. Minnesota is more plentiful and significantly lower priced. I'm selling house in city near Mankato. Lenders and sellers are hoping Twin City buyers are looking at rural cities. We have variety of humans in rural area. My neighbors and I welcome BIPOC.
@KerriMPR To balance out concerns from those who owe and those that never took out loans would be to require 'Personal Finance Success' courses. This could address history & default issues. Small cost for forgiveness and benefit society.
Pretty sad how much people have been conditioned to believe that not getting crushed by costs of healthcare, housing, education, and low wages is either “radical left politics” or “nice but unrealistic”

@sppdmn Considering all the charges, the cost of the damage and the humans put at risk, WHY was this defendant only held on $3,500 bail. I agree with no or little bail for non violent offenders, but this guy is a danger to himself and others.
I asked some friends to help me explain why Election Day might be a little different this year.
The four of us don't agree on everything. But we do agree on this: The 2020 election is too important to sit out.
Go vote.
