Trump left office down 2.9M jobs & increased the debt by $8.4T. President Biden created 16M jobs with a further increase of $4.3T to the national debt. How did 78M Americans believe Biden destroyed the economy? Can democracy live if Americans can no longer see the truth?

China has been reforming education from "drill-and-kill" to a problem-based learning approach. Perhaps something we should be looking at as our cell phone addicted children are suffering cognitive decline...

Trump wants to promote domestic industry. Yes, this makes sense. However, domestic industry will not be built overnight - it will take years and years. Meanwhile, the tariffs he plans to enact will cause great economic suffering for Americans & push away allies when we need them..

The "comeback" of a criminal isn't a celebration. It's a tragedy. Celebration of this darkness to sell magazine's is another example of how the media is no longer in pursuit of the truth and on the side of "right." time.com/7200212/pers...

Trump advisors want to "shrink bank regulation" putting our economic foundation at risk. No one "likes" regulation but it is critically necessary because many will pursue their self-interest with no regard for the repercussions. Failures like SVB and First Republic will be a regular event.

The Lancet estimates that 68,000 people die annually due to lack of healthcare or denied healthcare. Since corporations are people, then why are health insurance corporate policies that deny life saving medicine to patients who will die without that medicine, not deemed as intentional murder?
