We have less than 5% of the world’s population but almost 33% of its billionaires.
Meanwhile, 60% of Americans live paycheck to paycheck. 40% cannot cover any emergency expenses.
Our systems have failed the majority of Americans…and that disparity is being accelerated by this administration.

Your house is burning down, but you don't worry about the arsonist, you worry about if that little lady who you lent a cup of sugar but maybe she never returned it.
It's time you worried more about the people taking 100,000x as much from you, as you do about the people who are maybe getting a tiny amount of money they don't deserve.

Harrison Pitt accuses the King of treachery. Pitt is a Senior Policy Fellow for Rupert Lowe's Restore Britain, who also regularly co-hosts podcasts with his ally Tomlinson (who advocates banning all ethnic and faith minorities from public office).
