"Do you know how long it takes a working man to save $5000? Just remember this, Mr. Potter, that this rabble you're talking about-they do most of the working, paying, living & dying in this community. Well is it too much to have them work, pay, live & die in a couple of decent rooms & a bath?"

Well deserved. Everyone, and I mean everyone, needs to read Brian’s book. The issue of the unhoused is one of the most pressing issues of our time and these stories, so often , lived in the darkness. This is a big step in bringing these lived realities into the light. Congratulations!

If you make $100,000 a year (not bad), it will take you 10 MILLION years to earn a trillion dollars.
If you make a million dollars a year (wow!), it'll still take you a million years to earn a trillion dollars.

Tom Hanks explains to Stephen Colbert why he masks on the subway:

Thank you Tom! Masks are still a key part of public health.

They’re only funding SNAP at 50 percent, not because they care but because a court forced them.
Half benefits mean empty fridges for families who already have nothing to spare.
They’ve got trillions for billionaires and pennies for people.

If I were to sum up my advice to the Democratic party leadership about how to defeat Trumpism, it would be to set aside policy for now and focus instead on articulating a vision of what American society should look like and what role the US should play in a rapidly changing world today.
