Iran has a right to defend itself from its terrorist neighbor.

Yes, capitalism rewards sociopaths the most, as they are the most willing to exploit other people for profit.

Been saying for a while now, 20hr full time workweek makes a lot more sense.

Since the 1970s productivity has skyrocketed while wages have remained stagnant. If they don’t want to pay us more, fine I guess, but something has to give.

The critical nuance here is that in America, vitally important healthcare services are tied to your full time employment status. Hey, repugnantcons and turbolibs: if you want us to have more babies, might be time to reconsider this policy entirely.

She’s balls deep in “defense” equities and they’re making a killing right now raking in us tax dollars to ship arms to Israel. Then they get more taxpayer dollars to “replenish domestic stockpiles.” So yeah, there ya go.

On that note, wish we could stop rubber stamping the defense omnibus bills until the pentagon can successfully complete a financial audit.

I don’t think it’s the protesting, but rather the target of the protests. For some reason Israel seems to be held in higher regard than any American interest. We can protest and shit talk our own terrible politicians all day long and nobody really bats an eye. But ask that we stop murdering innocent brown children in Gaza? Threaten economic consequences for Israel if they don’t stop the murder? For some reason that is a grave offense worthy of trampling on our first amendment rights.

Think about how wild that is - speaking out against the atrocities a foreign government is committing is worthy of taking away your freedom in the US.

Yes, let’s legalize and give protections to all the sex workers.

Chuds: No, not like that!!

This should have been obvious to anyone watching. Their coverage was tripping all over itself to avoid accurate descriptions of the atrocities ongoing in Gaza.

Regulate on corporate price gouging and collusion, break up monopolies, tax the rich, use the money to bolster social safety nets and build new ones.

Youngkin really shoving his head completely up his own ass. Thinks taking a stand against massively popular ballot measures will cement his presidential run, while at the same time proving his inability to govern by leaving millions of tax revenue on the table. Here’s hoping this ushers in even stronger Dem representation in VA to keep the state blue.

It’s only possible when the mega rich aren’t paying their fair share, or aren’t paying at all relative to everyone else.

This year the maximum income taxable for SS is 160k. This effectively means the top 10% aren’t paying into the system. End their special treatment and the system will be easily funded.

Is it confusing when he is honest or what? I don’t get it. Even a broken clock can be right twice per day.

Trump and other republicans in government power staged an attempted coups on Jan 6. It’s not a conspiracy theory or anything, I didn’t even realize this was debated, it’s literally what happened.
