CEO-to-worker pay ratio in 1965: 20-1 CEO-to-worker pay ratio in 1990: 75-1 CEO-to-worker pay ratio today: 325-to-1 Trickle-down economics was always a sham. Nothing has ever trickled down.

Churchill specifically wanted ‘corkscrew’ thinkers. He believed that the Germans were too conventional, conservative. Too ‘straight’ Geoffrey Pyke. Prolific inventor. Very beardy and weird Turing. Code breaker. Gay. Dudley Clarke. Invented SAS. Bonkers. Cross dresser

Today's jobs report is a reminder that tax cuts for corporations and the rich don’t create jobs or grow the economy. What's required is investment in working people — and better wages. When workers have money to spend, the economy grows and businesses create more jobs. Remember this.

And on it went, with Hegseth spinning one bad idea after another, and managing to insult any number of Americans in the process. A bad idea hamster www.theatlantic.com/newsletters/...
