Elon Musk could get a trillion-dollar payout while 42 million Americans watched their turn into SNAP benefits political pawns during the government shutdown. That’s not a system, that’s a moral collapse.

“There’s too many Americans on SNAP!”
Yes there are. Too many corporations refuse to pay a living wage.
Huge companyies are encouraging their employees to apply for SNAP because they don’t pay them enough to survive.
The government encourages this & then blames the poor.

UNTIL IT’S DONE, Ep. 5: Vito Marcantonio
There are many who dismiss our vision for New York as impossible. To them, I say we need look only to our past for proof of how we can shape the future.
Tomorrow is Election Day. And this is the final Until It's Done of our campaign.

Many think poverty is an individual failure, but it’s really a societal one. It’s a shared responsibility we keep avoiding
The irony is that wealth is treated as individual success, even though it depends on society itself
Wealth reveals the nature of our own humanity & #UBI becomes a moral right

Mutual aid is an absolutely important tool for community care and instills a practice of collective care disrupting individualism
But it’s not sustainable unless it becomes massively mainstream in practice and massive upper class start distributing to many many individuals.

No one should face financial ruin because they got sick or needed medical care.
Healthcare is a basic human right.
These premium increases will ruin people.
It will put people on the streets.
It will end lives.
It will cause more disability.

To all the people staying silent in the face of 40 million Americans losing SNAP… shame on you. Speak up
Being poor, disabled or homeless is not a moral failing
These are minority groups you can join any time
It’s not something you can “try harder” your way out of
We need support & solidarity

Do you know about @solofunds?
It allows you to loan funds to people in need with a 2 week payback period.
6 months ago I put in $100, and since then it’s contributed almost $800 to people and you know what? I have $119 still.
It helps people avoid credit card debt, and predatory loans.

Food is not a luxury, it’s necessary for survival.
Things will fall apart when folks can’t feed themselves or their families.
Many don’t even know they won’t be receiving their SNAP.
This is a systemic problem. We have to fix it together.
We need to warn people. Scale up food donations. Prepare.

Our member Scott Ellis says what too few are willing to: when wealth becomes power, democracy suffers.
In his @time.com op-ed, he argues that taxing excessive wealth isn’t about punishing ambition, it’s about protecting democracy & giving everyone a fair shot. time.com/7325632/univ...
