If you managed to stomach the sky-high price of a ticket to a game today, you probably noticed the price-gouging didn’t stop at the stadium entrance.
Concessions prices can be double or even triple what they cost just across the street. But there’s a way to crack down.

The ultra-wealthy keep trying to pit the rest of us against each other with scare tactics ("communists!" "men in the ladies room!!" "brown people!!!" "drag queens!!!!") to keep us from noticing that our real problem is THEM.
They want us to fight *any* war—except a class war.
Happy Labor Day.

Here’s your daily reminder that when you go to cast your ballot in November please vote all the way down the ballot. The further down you go, those races really do get closer to your front door and ultimately your wallet. Let’s turn these laboratories of autocracy back into democracy.

Reps. Pramila Jayapal, Chris Deluzio, and Pat Ryan have introduced a bill to break up meat monopolies.
Good. Right now, 4 meat processing corporations control 80% of the market, allowing them to squeeze customers and farmers alike.
Minimal competition means maximal price gouging.

@netflix.com should take all these fantastic and fearless journalists and create a news arm.

Reminder: Tariffs aren't paid by other countries.
They're eventually paid by us at the check out line.
And they're regressive — taking a higher percentage out of the paychecks of working people than out of the wealthy.
