Medicare for All would save $450B a year.
Every dollar spent on food stamps generates $1.50-$1.80 in economic activity.
Each dollar going to low-wage workers adds $1.20 to the economy overall.
It’s not about what this country can or can’t afford.

We are impoverishing ourselves in a market economy that only rewards wealth extraction, market manipulation, and destructive ai data center construction. When historians like myself argue that the market is a creation of the state, this is what we mean.

Since then, largely thanks to Trump's Big Ugly Bill, their companies have reaped $51B in federal tax breaks — paid for by huge cuts to our social safety net.
