I don’t care if you’re a Democrat, Republican, Libertarian, or Green, we all must come together and agree that the federal government shouldn’t be creating a database to surveil Americans.

Starbucks repeatedly has followed the counsel of its attorneys, and it repeatedly has lost in court. If the Department of Labor enforced its reporting rules, union busting employers would have less incentive to follow bad advice. prospect.org/justice/2023-10…

In case you were wondering whether the Big 3 automakers can afford to pay their workers more: Combined profits at the Big 3 are up 92% over the decade. This year they've paid out $14 billion in dividends and buybacks. Damn right they have the means to pay workers a fair share.

Workers sacrifice a great deal by going on strike. But they are doing it to secure the long-term gains that they deserve.

This is how our government has been corrupted: 1) Donors give huge sums to elect politicians to office. 2) Elected officials rewrite the rules in the donors' favor. 3) Donors make a huge profit. 4) Repeat. For the sake of democracy, we must get Big Money out of politics.

Today marks the 50th anniversary of the U.S.-backed coup in Chile that overthrew Salvador Allende and inaugurated almost two decades of brutal military rule under Augusto Pinochet. Celebrated Chilean American writer Ariel Dorfman examines the long shadow of the coup today.

Community note
The graph claims both income and rent are adjusted for inflation, which is not true. The income line is adjusted for inflation, and the rent line isn't. That makes it look like rent went up a lot more than income, where in reality they went up by a similar amount. fred.stlouisfed.org/graph/?g=18It6

The reason climate deniers get so petulant when confronted with the truth is because it reminds them how selfish and petty and ignorant they are

The Fed is just absolutely screaming the quiet part and yet every millionaire pundit in the Acela Corridor is still asking "why oh why are Americans so unhappy with the economy?"

The state continues to double down and side with the fossil fuel industry while increasing punishment for climate activists. This is a path to irreversible planetary destruction and it leaves us no choice but to escalate. Few realize it yet but this is a real war, a corporate war

Communities must be empowered to monitor environmental toxins, so that citizens can be informed and protect their communities against industries that profit at the expense of life. ProgCode's EnviroTrack project can be part of the solution. truthout.org/articles/oil-re…

AMLO's implementation of universal reform policies measurably reduced poverty in Mexico. His only notable policy failure resulted when following piecemeal US solutions to healthcare. Read @KurtHackbarth's excellent analysis in @jacobin. jacobin.com/2023/08/amlo-pov…
