Despite huge advancements in technology & worker productivity since the 1970s, wages for American workers have remained stagnant and almost all new wealth has gone to the people on top.

Will it be any different with AI and robotics?

I don’t think so. Maybe even worse.

Some really great lessons with a bit of 'passing the baton' energy — two populists talk mayoral politics.

Chuck Schumer should be focused on fighting Donald Trump and protecting healthcare for millions of Americans, not meddling in a Maine primary.

DC's choice has lost to Susan Collins five times in a row. We can't afford a sixth.

Because they are corrupt

I am not hoping either way.

I also disagree with that it would have been released or leaked. I think Clinton is also in there like that.

a comment from a person who 1) expects nobody to remember that he ran a populist campaign for president and then literally "foamed the runway" (his aide's words!) for his bank donors while they foreclosed on millions of Americans and 2) is certain the interviewer would never dare ask about that

The concentration of wealth in the hands of a few isn't just bad for our economy. It's corrosive to our democracy.

When the wealthy and well-connected control our political system, regular people don't have a voice.

The result? The demagoguery and corruption we're seeing now.

💥 Still think capitalism is the answer???

Meta’s AI splurge is a case study in warped incentives & misallocation. 🍐

🫡 If capitalism allocates best, explain the AI arms race; remember it isn't only Meta....
