This is why labor laws are so important — and exactly why big corporations spend so much money lobbying against them.
It's also why unions are vital — and why we need to support @sbworkersunited.org's fight against corporate greed.

One significant way to fix the federal deficit? Dramatically raise the minimum wage across our country. It will cause an increase in tax collections, much less people on federal assistance, and health outcomes will improve causing less reliance on federal health programs.

There was a time when 90% of Americans would have understood how deranged in every conceivable way a post like this is

The 400 richest Americans are now worth a record $6.6 trillion.
The entire bottom 50% of America is worth just $4.2 trillion.
Read that back.
When 400 people control more wealth than half a country’s population, we have a very serious problem.

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.

In my thirties I was hospitalized with Chickenpox, in very horrible condition. My children escaped that same fate with the Chickenpox vaccine they received.
A kook named Kennedy could take that away.

When does the sane washing stop
JFC, NPR. Just say that he opposes all vaccines, having declared not a single one is safe or effective, and that he wants to shut down all research into new drugs, including those for cancer and Alzheimer's disease. You can also note he's a bonkers conspiracy-monger.

You don’t skip FBI background checks unless his nominees have something to hide.
