NEW: The first two years of Massachusetts' millionaire tax has raised $3 billion more than expected.
And rather than driving the rich away, IPS researchers found that the number of millionaires has *increased.*

Hi, Bluesky.
I don't tend to do this kind of thing, but:
This A.M. my landlord sent my family and I eviction papers for 14 days from now.
That's November 8th. My actual birthday. I'm scrambling for solutions at my factory job rn.
Any gift, share, or kind word helps!
