At the peak of the Gilded Age in 1910, the richest 0.00001% of the US population owned wealth equal to 4% of national income.

Now, the richest 0.00001% owns 12%.

“In Finland, the number of homeless people has fallen sharply. Those affected receive a small apartment & counselling with no preconditions. 4 out of 5 people affected make their way back into a stable life. And all this is cheaper than accepting homelessness.”

It hums above like a foreign promise ,constant, cold, and never ours. A sound dressed as security, yet it makes the sky feel like a cage.
