Badassery and a complete disregard for consequences. Mostly sports, funny shit, and kitty cats.

WHEN YOU REALIZE THE BABY BOOM WASN'T JUST SOLDIERS COMING HOME HORNY.

It was soldiers coming home to the GI Bill, free college, 0% down home loans, and low interest business loans.

It was strong unions. Pensions. A house that cost 2 years of salary.

It was confidence that the future was actually going to be better than the present.

That's what produced a baby boom. Not romance. Security.

You want a higher birth rate now?

Give people a future where they know their kids will actually be okay.

That's the whole formula. It's not complicated. It's just expensive, and nobody in charge wants to pay for it twice.

When the system you live under says it is “justified” for the police to murder a one-year-old baby it means it is time for a new system that serves and protects the people instead of profits.

This admin recently stripped away the ability from Americans to borrow enough student loan money to get a nursing degree
& now they’re whining about their own actions & the crisis they’ve caused?

You don’t solve poverty by teaching everyone to become millionaires. You solve poverty by building an economy where ordinary work can produce a decent life.

@TheJonasKnox I don’t hear any argument against Protect the Rating Theory….just “nah” and then a bunch of points to support.

The sitting president of the United States just stood before a “crowd” of his supporters & suggested Iran “take out” two American cities, adding that it would be a “small price to pay”, and somehow that’s not the lead story on every newscast this morning.

Not even in the top 5.

“Exploiting a tax credit loophole” is another way of saying “exploiting taxpayers.”

Taxpayers shouldn’t be forced to subsidize billionaires, and billionaires shouldn’t be allowed to buy the politicians creating loopholes in our tax laws for them.

I know We Just Don't Care is an older one, but I share this once in a while to remind ourselves that even if men do believe women, that doesn't necessarily mean they're going to care. The problem isn't the report. The problem is the culture.

Feeling like a tax serf? You should because you are.

You put your money in a savings account & get paid 0.37% interest, according to FDIC data.

The bank can then put your cash at the Fed & get paid 4%.

Bank lobbyists have blocked the bill to let you cut out the middle man & put your cash at the Fed.

This is called "capitalism."
