In 1978, a student working a summer job at minimum wage could earn enough to cover an entire year of in-state tuition at a four-year public university, often without needing to take on debt.

In 1978, a student earning the federal minimum wage could realistically pay for an entire year of in-state tuition at a public four-year university with a typical summer job. With minimum wage set at $2.65 per hour and average annual tuition and required fees around $688, a student working 40 hours a week for 12 weeks could earn about $1,272 before taxes—more than enough to cover tuition and still have money left for books, transportation, and other expenses.

That reality has largely disappeared. While the federal minimum wage has remained at $7.25 per hour for years, average in-state tuition and fees at public four-year universities have climbed to roughly $11,000 annually. Covering tuition alone at minimum wage would now require more than 1,500 hours of work before taxes, the equivalent of nearly 38 weeks of full-time employment—far beyond what a student could earn during a normal summer break.

It turned out better than she’d imagined

The typical American household would need to spend $445 more a month to purchase the same goods and services as a year ago, a report from Moody's found.

This is unusual.

Today during a vote, Dianne Feinstein seemed visibly confused & instructed to vote yes by aides.

Feinstein, 89 years old, has incredibly unusual trades over 30 years in Congress.

In that time her net worth is up over $200 million.

Let's look at her trades:

Copaganda 101.
Turns out this is the same department that left 65-year-old veteran Gregory Gross paralyzed after using "pain compliance" techniques on him last year.
A story that didn't get 1/10th the media coverage as this bunny plastered over every news outlet in the world.

Update on the pregnant woman ticketed in the HOV lane. Sounds about Texas 🙃

Dianne Feinstein is not running for election in 2024.



Feinstein, 89 years old, has some of the most unusual trades in Congress, over her thirty year career.



In that time, her net worth sky rocketed to over $200 million.

Let’s look at some of her unusual trades:

Who's going to take care of all these babies in a nation that doesn't have paid parental leave, universal health care, subsidized day care and where the federal minimum wage is unsustainable to survive? Men celebrating Roe being overturned...think for a second.

Onlookers urged police to charge into the Texas grade school where a gunman killed 19 children and two teachers, a witness says. The rampage lasted upwards of 40 minutes, ending when the 18-year-old shooter was killed by a Border Patrol team. https://t.co/Q11bo5eR6j

My tia did not make it, she sacrificed herself protecting the kids in her classroom, i beg of you to keep my family including all of her family in y’all’s prayers , IRMA GARCIA IS HER NAME and she died a HERO. she was loved by many and will truly be missed.

[Read Raising Expectations (and Raising Hell) @JPHilllllll]

I can't get over how cops confronted the shooter at the door, let him get by them, then made up a story about body armor. While a teacher gave her life trying to defend her kids. The difference could not be clearer.

I focus on data.

So it is important the right info goes out.

Psaki previously said in March that month-to-month inflation was down.

This is false:

Aug: 5.3%
Sept: 5.4%
Oct: 6.2%
Nov: 6.8%
Dec: 7%
Jan: 7.5%
Feb: 7.9%

Today, CPI is coming out.

How high do you think it'll be?

The Bridgewater Mall Fight is the clearest example of how police actively use race as a shorthand for who they perceive as a threat.

See for yourself.
