Making algorithmic social media a non-viable business with regulatory burdens and massive expansion of liability exposure is obviously one.

The only way we recover from this Trump presidency is with a MASSIVE expansion of public infrastructure, the safety net, and regulatory state.

Go Biblical on corporate malfeasance and the wealthy.

Trump’s “agenda includes not just emasculating the Senate’s advice-and-consent role but also refusing to spend money that lawmakers have appropriated, curbing the independence of federal regulatory agencies and eviscerating the nonpartisan civil service.”

lol first question is about robotaxi expansion. Answer includes that Tesla plans to roll them out with safety drivers "in the driver's seat" in San Francisco to "expedite regulatory" approvals. So...a taxi?

Yeah my argument is that an expansion of government healthcare to tens of millions accompanied by a substantial regulatory intervention does not become neoliberalism because it also uses market mechanisms to ensure universal coverage, neoliberalism does not mean “not as left wing as I would prefer”

This crisis calls out for EU action. What is needed is massive joint funding to put in huge orders to catalyze a massive expansion of production. Additionally, the EU could help push aside permitting/regulatory hurdles. This could be the ASAP (155 ammo) initiative on steroids. 6/

The legislation to improve working conditions in this country was written in the blood of generations of workers who died, quite horribly, at work, leaving their families to fend for themselves against the gaping maw of capitalist expansion

This is not some wasteful regulatory nonsense
New bill introduced to repeal OSHA…all I gotta say is if this gets slammed through, workplaces will be deathtraps for workers again

If a support beams just happens to fall on a GOP congressperson’s head as a result of this, I hope folks just shrug and say “we used to have standards for this”

I’m laughing in despair imagining the 5th Circuit just saying “Yeah, why not? Seatbelt laws are an unconstitutional expansion of the regulatory state.”

It’s just stupid and reactionary enough to be on the edge of plausibility.

There are really only a few that could have meaning for the bill contents:
1-Blackburn/Hawley to strip out the state AI regulatory ban
2-Collins on increasing rural hospital funds or adding a millionaire's tax
3-Scott/Lee/Lummis/Johnson on phasing out the ACA Medicaid expansion.

The problem with the expansion of the regulatory state is not that it is a straightjacket on government but that it *is government*. It's all part of the executive but it's too big for ministers to understand.

Bottom line? State leaders can lower utility bills through a combination of near-term relief, utility regulatory reform, and expansion of a clean energy grid.
