So they literally could have set up 400 people in a $1500 a month apartment for 29 YEARS for what they spent to abuse people. Or housed almost 1000 people for a year at the same rate.
In preparation for today’s Super Bowl in New Orleans, state police forced over 100 homeless men and women onto buses under threat of arrest, dumping them in an unheated warehouse. Tents destroyed, belongings lost. Press are barred from the warehouse.
The price tag for this cruelty? $17.5 million

Louisiana coerced unhoused people into an unheated warehouse – and paid $17.5m for it
Dozens of New Orleanians were bused to a site with insufficient heating and blankets days before the city is to host the Super Bowl

Pfizer’s cancer drug commercial was beautiful, but their breast cancer drug Ibrance costs $10k per month and their prostate cancer drug Xtandi costs $22k per month.
Beautiful commercials don’t change the fact that 42% of cancer patients exhaust their life savings in 2 years.

Hey look, another instance of the total failure of Article I of the Constitution.
This is an agency created by a law of Congress in 1961. The President does not have the power to do this. Except, he can if Congress does nothing.

Reminder for Elon:
The National Labor Relations Act (NLRA) protects “concerted activity,” giving you the right to discuss working conditions, pay, and workplace concerns with others. This includes venting with co-workers about unfair treatment, pay, or safety issues, even on social media.
