@edgarblythe,
That bastard. Glad he got his hand caught in the cookie jar.
President Biden vowed to be the most “pro-union ever.”
Well, now’s the time to prove it. The working class does NOT need another anti-labor Justice actively fighting against their interests on the Supreme Court.
Joe Biden must not appoint J. Michelle Childs.

The US government's strategy of solving every problem with giving rich people more money isn't working for the average citizen
@edgarblythe,
Kind of like Margaret Thatcher said: Socialism is a great system till you run out of other people's money.
That isn't a direct quote, but good enough.
@roger,
So it's better to continue to give it all to the rich and the military instead of spending it on those paying taxes?

The longer this goes on the less inclined I am to believe that Biden intends to do the right thing.

$760 Million a day spent on prisons & police in the US. That's $31 Million EVERY HOUR.
We could easily use that to fund the switch to green energy, provide food/housing/clothes for all, give healthcare to all, or fix our collapsing infrastructure. ...Instead we lock people up.
