It should come as no great surprise that a Democratic Party which has abandoned working class people would find that the working class has abandoned them. While the Democratic leadership defends the status quo, the American people are angry and want change. And they’re right.

“They shouldn’t have taken on student loans!” Do people realize that this sentence effectively means they believe people from working class backgrounds shouldn’t have attended college? It’s classism.

Today, I asked Moderna’s CEO, Stéphane Bancel, if he could guarantee that Americans would not pay the highest prices in the world for the COVID vaccine. He could not make that commitment.

GOP removed housing regulations —housing collapsed GOP removed railroad regulations—trains derailed GOP removed banking regulations —banks went under It’s almost like society needs rules to function?🤔 Stop deregulating billionaires. Start prosecuting those who commit fraud.

Governments (like Macron's) setting retirement age according to average life expectancy are indulging in class war. In 1930, the richest could expect to live 5 yrs longer than the poorest. Today it is at least 13 yrs longer. Using averages in a class society is class war.
