But surely it's a fact because he says so. That's how it works, right Karoline?

So, Amazon operates in all 50 states. Back in 2018 some states were reported as having 500-1000 Amazon employees on SNAP.
So let's be generous and say 'only' 12,000 (250x50) such people exist.

GIVING them an extra $10,000 each would deduct barely 5% of Amazon's profit of $21.2bn.

Amazon making 14,000 redundant because a 13% year on year increase in sales to $167.7bn (£125bn) just isn't enough.
(That 414ft, $400,000,000 schooner won't pay for itself, eh Jeff?)
But it's not just Amazon...

Too high for one of these?

I can't for the life of me think why things started changing in the 80s

Oh look, we're back!

Today's foam art is an evil spacehopper.

It's worth remembering what the Balfour declaration was.
"Nothing shall be done [to] prejudice the civil and religious rights of non-Jewish communities..."

I'm very lucky. This dog walk a few minutes from home and then London; a fast train journey away.

I found this photo of my trip to Washington DC (8 years ago!) and tweaked it a bit.
