Hey, Tim.....this does nothing to protect health care!!!!! Nothing, zero, bumpkus. In this century the Democratic Party has nominated for VP Joe Lieberman, who nearly by himself killed the public option in the ACA, and Tim Kaine, who is trying to put the final nail in it's coffin.

Amazon announced plans to lay off 14,000 employees as it looks to invest more in AI.
Wall Street cheered the news, sending Amazon stock prices higher.
This will boost Amazon's CEO pay and bolster Jeff Bezos's net worth, which is now $250 billion.
The system is rigged.
