Unemployment is at the highest it's been in 4 yrs. Nobody can afford to buy a home. Groceries cost more than going to a restaurant. Childcare costs your 1st born child. The Gov is shut down... and $250M is being spent on a new ballroom in the White House.

White House begins demolishing East Wing facade to build Trump’s ballroom
The president had claimed construction of the $250 million ballroom wouldn’t “interfere” with the existing White House structure.

It was such a beautiful evening at Oregon Ridge tonight for the Oregon Ridge Nature Council's annual meeting and celebration where incredible volunteers and scholars were recognized.

Also today I had to pick up my dad's prescription. After 18 surgeries yes, he gets prescribed opioids for when he needs them because pain is so excruciating. Well, now, it is required you buy a $60 narcan with any opioid prescription... So just another way big pharma is getting theirs.

Just heard a Trump supporter call in on the radio talking about how politicians have forgot about serving people and have become celebrities and only work for themselves

Today I joined a conversation about the State of Recycling. I was quite sad it was just a lesson about what can be recycled about how we need to reduce and not a discussion about how to handle the plastics we do receive. ... 1/2

Fury at the health care industry and its practices is.
The take away shouldn't be companies should take down leadership pages and beef up security...it should be overhauling a health care system that allowed AI to deny as many claims as possible to bolster the bottom line.

Elon pays $0 in taxes and Tesla and SpaceX receive $5.9B in government subsidies a year.
I feel like we can cut this down if billionaires pay their fair share and don't just take.
And guys like Bezos could pay enough so workers aren't forced to get government assistance.

China couldn't care less about tariffs. Even if it doesn't raise prices, China will subsidize every tariff because they want to secure their market share. We need to work to modernize our manufacturing and economy rather than live in a dream world where things will be like they were in the 50s.
JUST IN: President-elect Donald Trump has vowed to impose massive hikes on goods from China, Mexico and Canada on his first day in office.
