It’s not a great deal if you don’t need it. And especially this year, others really need support. So for all of us who have enough, let’s refuse to get sucked into the holiday shopping frenzy and share instead of shop. We don’t need more stuff, we need communities where all our neighbors are safe.

They’re not going after criminals. “Criminals don’t get up and go to work and pay their bills.”

These are not criminals; they’re hard-working people.

I don’t think the kids understand that Luke went all the way to the Supreme Court so we can say some nasty ass shit. Record stores and even MTV was heavy on censorship.

Whenever people complain about the number of folks relying on food stamps, it is worth reminding them that SNAP is, by too large of a degree, a subsidy for corporations that refuse to pay a living wage and their political allies who reject public policy prescriptions to reduce income inequality.

It’s that time of year again. Back to school for the kids.

This ad should run during every NFL kickoff, every college football opener, every “Friday Night Lights.” Because school shootings are as American as football now.

The federal government failed to provide formerly enslaved people with 40 acres at the end of the war in 1865, but it offered White people 160 acres to move westward, starting in 1862, through the Homestead Act. That pretty much sums up the problem with America.
