I think the President of the US responding to a question about the murder of a journalist with "A lot of people didn't like that gentleman" is probably pretty bad.

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.

I just did this yesterday - found a couple of bucks worth of claims out in the ether (one from the 90s).
I have gotten about $300 in the last year from unclaimed property claims including $130 this week from Wisconsin - a state I moved away from in 2006. recommend a search (with all names you’ve ever had) when you have some time to kill. I find the individual state sites better than aggregators

Over 5,000 carrots picked to earn $100?! We really need to respect these workers an pay them a living wage! Thank you Ale!
“Ale" works in the carrot harvest in CA. She earns $3.05 for every box of carrots she packs. One box has 24 bunches of 7 carrots each. To earn $100 she has to pack 34 boxes or 816 bunches which represents over 5000 carrots picked in a day. #WeFeedYou

Lots of great non-Starbucks options for your coffee! Pay them a visit until the greedy Starbucks owners decide to treat their workers with dignity.
As of this morning, Starbucks workers across the country are officially ON STRIKE. And we're prepared for this to become the biggest and longest ULP strike in Starbucks history.
Say #NoContractNoCoffee with us: DON'T BUY STARBUCKS for the duration of our open-ended ULP strike! $SBUX
