I stopped ordering from Amazon 2 years ago. I had my search engine block it entirely I noticed a couple things I ordered on Ebay came in Amazon trucks. I'll be asking vendors about that. I'm not putting up with it, might even put up a sign on my street "NO Amazon personnel/trucks past this point"

I think it is crucial for the health of the Democratic party that the entire consultant class from previous administrations, including and especially Clinton, be told to go home and stop bothering people. They are wrong about everything and have been holding the party back for decades.

When we told you that the rethuglican party has ALWAYS been fascist, that racism is in their their bones We knew what we're talking about. Now THEY'RE showing you we were right! Limited gvnt has always meant: some of you we will not defend. Fiscal conservatism means: some of you we will not protect.

Until the Reagan years, the SEC considered stock buybacks to be illegal stock manipulation. Now, NVIDIA has announced the largest buyback in American history — fueled by the data center boom. It's time to make buybacks illegal again.

It should not be lost on any of us that Cornell University swiftly suspended students for peacefully protesting atrocities against women and children, but allowed men who drugged and gang-raped a woman for seven hours to write an essay and continue with their education.

I'm not an economist but- Everyone deserves an income, no one deserves a profit. if yr thinking "WAM! I don't get to profit from my work!!" That's income. Profit is what you get from Someone Else's work. Thats why a CEOs salary & stock package are different & why his socks are taxed @ a lower rate!

Any frank assessment of your achievements starts with an equally frank assessment of the world-historic forces that attended those achievements. For example, I often tell people who want to get into tech, "If you lack the foresight and work ethic to be born in 1971, I can't really help you." 1/

Do you know how much the pay of CEOs at major companies has skyrocketed since 1978? 50%? 100%? 500%? Try 1,316% Meanwhile, the typical workers’ compensation increased only 28%. This is what I mean when I say the system is rigged.

For the record: The University of California has never asked me for anything like this. But I am seeing this line of questioning arising in a rapidly growing number of American contexts. It has been asked of me, personally, elsewhere. And that is very, very alarming.
