US #wealth inequality is shockingly high: the tiny 9%square in the corner? That's half the US population! Poor.

What happens when #AI really kicks in?

Applause to @HowardMarks for this OpEd, in which he takes an honest look at #AI, the #globaleconomy and links to #unemployment and #socialunrest.

People need purpose in life.

What does AI offer?

Remember: There is nothing natural or inevitable about extreme inequality; it’s the result of an economic system that values wealth and power over human dignity and justice.

It doesn't have to be this way.

96% of the highest-paid workers in the US have paid sick days.

Just 38% of the lowest-paid workers get them — including the thousands of retail workers working this holiday weekend.

Only in America do we call working people ‘essential’ but deny them paid sick leave.

Around 70% of the U.S. economy depends on consumer spending. As wealth concentrates in the richest 10%, the rest of America can’t afford to buy enough to keep the economy running. This is a huge problem — and even America’s most powerful CEOs are starting to sound the alarm.

Amazon announced 14,000 layoffs. Its CEO made over $40M last year.

UPS announced 48,000 layoffs. Its CEO made over $24M last year.

Intel announced 20,000 layoffs. Its new CEO's pay package is valued at nearly $69M.

This is what I mean when I say the system is rigged.

Unpopular opinion, if your #customerservice is an app, or online "communities" you're not providing customers any service.

"DIY" tech support - especially for subscription services - is NOT acceptable. #saas

Did the real @rbreich.bsky.social like my posts? Wow! 🤩 Not sure if I should faint (possibly his biggest fan!) ...or ask him to endorse my book "Virtual Natives" (Wiley) 😂

Robert - the book is largely about how Gen Z is employing technology because our economic system has failed them.

instead of asking, where is #Trump we need to watch people like #PeterThiel.

The donors will know before we do. They are the signal. Always watch the money. #whereistrump #trumphealth

Do you think a conversation with would be "normal"? Or Bezos? Or jobs? Outliers are odd. If you think differently, you may get this a lot; I know I do. 😂

Nothing says #authoritarianism like co-option of the media. Media suppression is a serious threat to democracy and freedom of expression.

Good job #cbs! This is your legacy. You did this.

@paramountcbs.bsky.social #thelateshow #colbert
CBS canceled Colbert’s show just THREE DAYS after Colbert called out CBS parent company Paramount for its $16M settlement with Trump – a deal that looks like bribery.

America deserves to know if his show was canceled for political reasons.

Watch and share his message.
