Reposted by @sisyphet.bsky.socialRobert Reich @rbreich.bsky.social · 15/04/2025Undocumented immigrants paid an effective federal income tax rate of 5.27% in 2022. That means they paid a higher effective tax rate than 5 of the richest Americans…and a higher effective tax rate than 55 mega corporations. So let me ask you: who are the real freeloaders? 5043517910850

The technology currently being marketed as AI does not lead to AGI. 171
