CEO-to-worker pay ratio in 1965: 20-to-1

CEO-to-worker pay ratio in 2020: 366-to-1

CEO-to-worker pay ratio now: 399-to-1

Is it really any mystery why thousands of workers across multiple industries have been on strike?

@politicususa Trump didn’t ‘win’ the election as much as the Democratic Party lost it…they were way overconfident & had lost touch with the middle class…let’s hope they are smarter in 2024!

@blond_cindy @Alessa_Klaim Hi!

The judge assigned to Trump's new indictment, Tanya Chutkan, is one of the toughest sentencers of the January 6 rioters and has said, "Presidents are not kings and the plaintiff is not president."

Not a lucky draw for Trump. https://t.co/tCJD5z3IUe

@arindube @price_laborecon Let me rephrase that: is blind selfishness and abnormal amounts of selfishness and egotism likely to produce civil strife, criminal activity and so forth?

@price_laborecon What a concept…are you up to it?

The myth of the self-made billionaire is just that, a myth.

Six of the 10 wealthiest Americans alive today are heirs to fortunes passed on to them by wealthy ancestors.

Trickle down economics is a cruel joke.

I'm wishing everyone well and calling on local agencies and Dow to put public and worker health and safety first, provide regular, accurate, and updated information and access to necessary care.

Turning Point Action Conference. You will never find a more wretched hive of scum and villainy.

It was one of the worst displays in Trump’s time in office— the secret meeting with Putin, the theft of the translator’s notes, the shoving of dignitaries, and the humiliating, cowardly fealty to Putin.

The Republican Party: America’s most determined and successful saboteurs.

Not surprised! Trump is an idiot!

WOW! President Biden just got some amazing poll numbers against Trump!!!

Via a new NBC poll:
• Biden leads Trump 49-45
• Biden beats Trump among women (55-38), 18-34 year olds (65-30), Latinos (66-26), and independents (47-33).

Republicans should be VERY worried
