Corporate profits soared last quarter to their highest levels since right before the Great Depression, reaching 14.4%. They keep raising prices to pad excess profits, leaving us all holding the bag. This is a systemwide coordinated effort that's crushing the working class.
I don't want to tax the rich because I hate Elon Musk or I am jealous of Jeff Bezos. I want to tax the rich because Elon Musk has a trillion dollars and Jeff Bezos $255 billion and 266 million people are facing acute hunger while 2.1 billion people lack access to drinking water.
So RFK comes into town, torches research and disease prevention programs, and now we have outbreaks of measles, screwworm, and cyclospora.
It’s almost like doctors should be in charge of health services.
Capital flight is a myth that the wealthy use to scare people into not taxing them. Sergey Brin has already spent more money trying convince people to vote "NO" on Prop 40 than he would have if he got taxed.
There's a reason why CA is home to over 200 billionaires.
I need everyone to differentiate Keith Porter Jr’s murder bc it is an egregious example of the times we are living in- he wasn’t murdered by ICE during an immigration action nor protest. A random man murdered him in his own yard &used his position as ICE agent to get away with it
Reminder that shit like this is happening because Trump’s budget cuts to agencies like the FDA. Our food is less regulated now because of his choices as a leader.
From the article:
Just to make the case plainly: If you are a family who moves to Indiana and buys a home for $225,000, you'll pay taxes on that investment until you die. If you invest $2 billion in a data center or wind turbines or a logistics facility, you'll likely pay no taxes whatsoever on that investment.
To accommodate this huge business tax cut, SEA 1 pushed local governments to enact income taxes, while forcing property tax cuts for older Hoosiers. Indiana has plenty of seniors and is bleeding young people at an economically disastrous rate.
Indiana is making it cheaper to be old while making it more expensive to be young. Guess what that obvious incentive is going to do to state demographics?
ICE arrests of Cubans went up from less than 200 per month in late 2024 to more than 1,000 per month by late 2025. Since December 2024, green card approvals for Cubans have fallen 99.8% and ICE arrests of people from the island have risen by 463%.
To be clear, a false flag doesn’t imply that the event didn’t occur or that no one lost their life. Instead, it indicates that the event was staged to achieve a specific objective by manipulating public opinion through fear and anger.
Can we stop pretending America is on the verge of the Soviet Union every time someone tries to raise taxes a little bit on the super rich? It’s condescending.
I miss the world before AI more than I miss the world before the pandemic. I hate what it’s doing to publishing, job markets, schooling, and the internet. It’s made people question every piece of content they see. I’m tired of reading about it, seeing it, or thinking about it.
Trump’s 2027 budget proposal will cut $736 million dollars from our National Parks Service.There have never been cuts like this in their history & President Biden never tried to cut them only increase.Certain Republicans are trying to sell of Public land & Free days changed too.
I'm always fascinated by this notion of due process as something we award a person because they've "earned it".
The reason for due process in immigration is to ensure that the people we deport are actually legally deportable.
