We're on a spending freeze for ALL non-essentials until further notice. If there's something else we need, the mottos are:
-BUY USED, PAY CASH
-RENT OR BORROW, RETURN TOMORROW
-USE IT UP, WEAR IT OUT, MAKE IT DO, OR DO WITHOUT
These 🤬 are going to find out how industrious we really are. 🇺🇸

Capitalism, by design must have “losers” otherwise there can’t be “winners” to complain about how they hate helping the “losers.”

If a phone still works fine, it’s not “device hoarding” to keep using it. It’s common sense.

This is the first Thanksgiving for Sophie & Colin Hortman without their parents, Minnesota state Rep. Melissa Hortman and Mark Hortman who were assassinated along with the family dog in an act of political murder. National guards troops were not deployed to the state in response.

Reporters asking me about the new KOSA text, here is my official statement:
"Fight for the Future's organizational policy is to oppose any piece of legislation that is unveiled on the eve of a major Federal holiday, regardless of what it says. We feel this is the most principled position."

The US economy is becoming more "k-shaped" as affluent consumers continue to spend and lower-income Americans cut back. Here's what to know
How the K-Shaped Economy Is Hurting Everyone But the Rich
Talk of the K-shaped economy is brewing once again. The moniker first gained traction in 2020 to describe the divergence between how rich and poor Americans were experiencing the pandemic recovery. Now, with consumption increasingly concentrated in the top echelons of wage earners, economists are concerned that the US economy finds itself in a top-heavy, unstable state.

We can do away with it without a new Supreme Court. Nor do we need a constitutional amendment. There’s a far simpler way to get rid of Citizens United. Let me explain. https://robertreich.substack.com/p/how-to-get-rid-of-citizens-united

Marjorie Taylor Greene's resigning in time to get a pension is a lesson to everyone.
Most Americans don't get *any* pension anymore, but Congress gave itself a pension after only five years of work.
Our "representatives" aren't working for us, they are [barely] working for themselves.

The EPA will approve two new pesticides containing “forever chemicals” and relax a reporting rule for companies who make products with forever chemicals.
The moves come after a $60 million lobbying blitz from the forever chemical industry.
Where is the MAHA outcry?
