Planet of origin: Earth Aspirations: Humans working together to find another world we can go to. We've got a few billion years to work it out if we don't all kill each other in the meantime
Instead of taxing the ultra rich, do a massive social media campaign to ask them to give 2 or 3 percent of their wealth to a fund for healthcare, or cancer research, or something else that just helps normal people. It's a fraction to them, but a big difference to their fellow humans

UK needs to go all out on energy independence. Quickest fix is wind and solar but nuclear longer term. Government needs to create the money to upgrade energy infrastructure because the return will be huge. Cheap energy is such a great advantage.

In case their trust tax dodge is undone and he has to pay tax on the gains he's made from not actually working for anything and just being given money?
Anyone know why a newspaper owned by the Fourth Lord Rothermere, who inherited a fortune from the Third Lord Rothermere, who inherited his money from the Second Lord Rothermere, who inherited it from the First Lord Rothermere, is so strongly opposed to inheritance tax?

He's not that deluded. He just tells lies that his deluded followers will accept as reality. He knows they can't accept true reality because that means they've been wrong. And they can never accept that they've been wrong regardless of the consequences
Trump's Crashout Monday continues: "I hope everyone realizes that price increases throughout America were caused by Sleepy Joe Biden and the Biden Administration, not by TRUMP.' Even Oil was higher under Biden than it is right now, and we prevented Iran from having a Nuclear Weapon!"

Yeah in a federation all partners need to be treated equally. You can't favor one over the other just because they agree or don't agree with your politics. The rules must apply to all equally
Mamdani: "New York City is leading a coalition of city and counties to sue the federal government for the gross illegality of their new public charge rule, and the irreparable damage that it will cause."

Do you realise that when you buy gas (petrol), a new washing machine, etc, using your credit card, or pay for a meal using your overdraft, you're creating money. The money you're spending didn't exist before you borrowed it. Your bank just made it up on their computers and now you owe it to them

Most of the rest of the civilised word sorted this years ago. 1948 for the NHS in the UK. Have an accident, call an ambulance. No insurance companies scamming you through excess charges or trying to deny your claim. Just thr care you need. It isn't perfect but it's way better than the US system

Banks create money by issuing loans and mortgages. They don't lend other people's savings. The money created is being vacuumed up by the wealthy to buy assets and inflate asset prices instead of being recovered by the state to ensure a fairer distribution of wealth. Trickle up has become flood up
Ossoff: "While the world burns & you pay more for everything, your tax dollars become royal family's wealth. Bc it pays to be a Trump, especially when the whole world knows daddy's a crook. Half a billion from the Emirati spy chief... the Mar-a-Lago mafia really has taken corruption to new heights"

...actually, same for health care, they're seriously involved with private health care insurance so their policy is "free at the point of USE", not at the "point of NEED". So if you have a moderate income, you'll NEED the insurance that their donors provide
We can't let crypto billionaires buy politicians to enhance their own interests. Reform has the slackest crypto regulation policies for a reason - it pays for them
