Our country is rapidly evolving into two Americas.
One consists of millions of working class families struggling to get by. The other: less than a thousand billionaires who have never had it so good.
That is not democracy. That is oligarchy. www.sanders.senate.gov/op-eds/two-a...

Under Chair Lina Khan, the FTC just voted to ban junk fees in hotels and live-event ticketing.
This is exactly what government working for the people looks like.
The lone no vote against this rule? Trump's pick for FTC Chair Andrew Ferguson.
The contrast couldn't be clearer.

Anyone who refers to the 90s as anything other than ten years ago is not to be trusted. Don’t let them fool you with their “new math,” we’re all still fresh out of school and just trying to figure it all out man

I often get asked if the world is getting better, or is it getting worse?
My answer is simple: Which one do you want? So, go, choose the future you want, and work for it.
That’s what our ancestors did, and we can too.

The Greeks absolutely had it right when they included a chorus in their plays. They knew audiences are dumbasses who need to be told “THIS MAN IS BAD. HE IS HERE AS AN EXAMPLE OF WHAT *NOT* TO DO. WOE TO THE BUMPTIOUS FOOL WHO WOULD IDOLIZE HIM. YOU ARE NOT, NOR DO YOU WANT TO BE, ALEX DELARGE”
