I don't buy that #TheCrueltyIsThePoint. I'm a materialist. Money talks, bullshit walks. When billionaires fund cruelty, that's a *tactic*, a way to get turkeys to vote for Xmas. Policies that help the 1% at the expense of the rest of us have a natural 99% disapproval rating.

to save some nickels Hertz mindlessly reported 1000s of cars stolen a year and got dozens of people arrested and jailed. Their punishment is to settle a lawsuit, none of the Hertz execs responsible for ruining lives and getting people kidnapped and caged will see a day in prison

An expanded and fully refundable Child Tax Credit means getting help directly to the families that need it.
