The deal was simple:
Democracy for deregulation. The Republic for ROI.
American tech oligarchs took it without hesitation.
They are opportunists of the lowest order, willing to burn down the institutions that built them just to secure a slightly better quarterly report

Social workers’ AI tool makes ‘gibberish’ transcripts of accounts from children

The economy is NOT booming. It only seems like to a few.
U.S. employers added a surprisingly strong 130,000 jobs last month, but government revisions cut 2024-2025 U.S. payrolls by hundreds of thousands.
