Increase in productivity since 1979: 87%
Increase in hourly pay since 1979: 32%
Just so happens that ~25% of workers were unionized in 1979. Today? 10%.
As unions declined, the super-rich have taken a larger share of wealth generated by labor. We must build back union power.

Dr Dobson, welcoming Charlie Kirk to the afterlife: Well done, my good and faithful servant.
Kirk: Hi Jim, nice reference, say where is Jesus anyway? I'm kinda looking forward to HIM saying that.
Dobson: You know, I haven't seen him yet, I'm sure he'll turn up sooner or later to thank us personally.

I don't think anyone outside of universities, pharma and biotech, independent research institutions have any idea of what is happening right now. If you haven't sounded the alarm among your friends, family and colleagues, now is the time to do it.

If he’s such a lousy journalist why did you add him to your Signal group?
Reporter: Can you share how your information about war plans was shared with a journalist?
