@BernieSanders Why wouldn’t federal minimum wage just follow the CPI? That would result in modest increases most years. Today’s minimum wage would be $11.29.
The National Park Service ran on a $3 billion budget and generated $56 billion in economic output in 2024. That’s over $17 back for every $1 invested.
With a record of 332 million visitors last year, Americans clearly care about their parks and expect them to be funded.
@RussellShaw_MLS@rennerchris@mcuban Spot on. And the shift that needs to happen is private insurance, Medicare and Medicaid covering more of the preventative medicine and early scans that can detect these things before they become emergency level. So revenue can shift and costs become much more controlled.
