CEO pay is up 1,085% since 1978, while typical worker pay is up just 24%.
Why do we always hear "we can't afford to pay our workers more" but never "we can't afford to pay our CEO more"?

Glad Trump had the chance to waste millions of taxpayer dollars to fly over the Daytona 500 and then ride The Beast on the track as parts of West Virginia, Virginia, Kentucky, Arkansas, and Tennessee are underwater. Priorities.

"We have worked hard all night and caught nothing" could be something that all of us could say, when we feel that all our efforts have failed and we are close to despair. But Jesus says: Try again.

Costco, which has come out saying it supports DEI, will make no changes to its existing programs, AND pays workers a minimum of $30/hour, is up 15% YTD.
Target, which announced it is ending all DEI programs and has a minimum wage of $15-$24/hour, is down over 4%.

I smell the smoke. I see the smoke. I feel the heat. I’m screaming FIRE 🔥 but everyone continues on with their daily life. Business as usual. I start to think, maybe I am the crazy one? But I know I’m smart and caring and majored in international relations. So I’m not crazy. I’m informed.

In its simplest terms, the apparent demise of #USAID is the result of the world's richest man ending a program that helps millions of poor people. You don't need a Ph.D. in moral theology to see why this is an evil. You can just read Jesus's parables on the rich and the poor.
