You may not agree with everything Steven Thrasher says about the current state of the US in this debate, but it's difficult to deny his brilliance. You can watch John Mearsheimer's response at this link as well. #Mearsheimer #StevenThrasher

Medicare for All would save $450B a year.

Every dollar spent on food stamps generates $1.50-$1.80 in economic activity.

Each dollar going to low-wage workers adds $1.20 to the economy overall.

It’s not about what this country can or can’t afford.

It’s about priorities.

Inflation is outta control and now AI is jacking up energy bills all over the country. Say NO to AI data centers in your community or the climate crisis is just gonna keep getting worse... #ClimateCrisis

AI's soaring energy consumption is causing skyrocketing power bills for households across the US — States reporting spikes in energy costs of up to 36%
Americans are footing the bill for the sheer amount of electricity required to operate the data centers responsible for providing access to AI tools and services.

Actually NPR & PBS have become pretty balanced mainstream news sources since Reagan started cutting their funding in the 80s. They get a lot more funding from corporate underwriters than they used to. This is just another excuse to reduce spending so Trump can cut taxes for rich people. #PBS #NPR

Jon Stewart accurately points out that DOGe and Musk's cuts amount to only a few billion dollars while the government continues to give profitable corporations many billions in subsidies #ElonMusk #DOGe
