CEO-to-worker pay ratio in 1965: 20-1

CEO-to-worker pay ratio in 1990: 75-1

CEO-to-worker pay ratio today: 280-to-1

Trickle-down economics was always a sham.

Nothing has ever trickled down.

Canadians who vote for Cons need to be bombarded with this type of information. Cons want privatization of healthcare.
My health insurance premiums will more than double in January. I pay a little less than $500/month for my current silver plan.

I just reapplied and my new premium will be $1062/month.

And don’t forget: I still have a co-pay for every visit and pay for prescriptions.

This is critical. Is it even on Carney's radar with all the critical economic changes that he's focused on? 🍁

The most important thing @mark-carney.bsky.social can do for #CanadaSky is election reform so that we never have to worry about a Conservative majority again. Otherwise, his achievements are temporary. #ElectionReform #FairVote #CanadaSky @markgerretsen.bsky.social

Canada’s economic growth beat expectations this quarter.

We’re diversifying our trade, building big, and creating well-paying careers — and we’re getting results.

As we all suspected, it's a moot point. Carney must have known. Was he just throwing a bone to Smith?

I read this as meaning: It may be smart for consumers to use their devices as long as they are viable, but the oligarchs aren't getting any richer that way.
If a phone still works fine, it’s not “device hoarding” to keep using it. It’s common sense.

Language skills are critical in all subjects. I agree with 👇.

Math + English assignment:

Dear student, here is the perimeter of the garden required, please show your work and respond with a persuasive essay about why your client should create it the way you are suggesting.

How much will they blab about how Elon rigged the election? This could be a good thing.

I read this and my first reaction was to laugh, because it could accurate. Then I felt frustrated, because it could very well be accurate.
