Scrap austerity – tax the super-rich instead

Britain can’t rebuild with more cuts – a wealth tax on the richest is the fair alternative to funding public services and growth

Donald Trump is getting rid of Medicaid entirely, this means you will need the $14,000 a year for Health Insurance and the $25,000 for bills you still get to give birth.

Or you will have to do it at home like it is 1825.

This is in the richest country in the world.

Faced with protests, Poland cut retirement age -65 for men, 60 for women.

France reconsidering plan to hike retirement age from 62 to 64 by 2030.

UK state pension age set to increase from 66 to 67.

Rich retire whenever they want, poor work until they drop.

Pensioner poverty in the world’s sixth largest economy is a political choice
The hardship inflicted on retirees now will surely visit future retirees unless steps are taken to alleviate misery.

“The controller who was handling helicopters in the airport’s vicinity Wednesday night was also instructing planes that were landing and departing from its runways. Those jobs typically are assigned to two controllers, rather than one.”
Staffing was ‘not normal’ at airport tower, according to a preliminary F.A.A. report.

Trump put a freeze on hiring air traffic controllers and, on Musk’s instruction, fired the FAA chief early without replacing him.

This should be the only thing Dems are saying today. They should all be out on media saying this.

👇💯 Nothing new about Musk. This is how capitalism works
Elon Musk, Henry Ford.

Two men who made billions making cars.

Two men who preach about free markets but rely on huge government support.

Two men who went to war with their unions.

Two men who idolize the Nazis.

These are the leaders of 'free market' capitalism.
