It's incredibly weird that so many people demonize socialism when socialism is what so many aspire to in retirement. Medicare (ideally) = not having to worry about medical payments after retirement age. Social security (ideally) = universal basic income after retirement age.

No doubt this has occurred to other bystanders as well, but it would seem that a handful of billionaires dropping $150 million into a single state's election in an attempt to defeat a wealth-tax initiative just about makes the entire case for a wealth-tax initiative.

St. Sabina Catholic Church in Chicago has placed more than 100 crosses outside the parish. Each bears the name of someone who died in ICE custody or during an immigration enforcement action. Union workers built the traveling memorial, which began at Holy Name Cathedral last month.
