They said it would trickle down. Stop believing them.

ALT Reagan is pointing at a graph showing a declining trend. The image includes large text that discusses economic impacts involving Reagan, Bush, and Trump, mentioning significant wealth transfer from the middle class to the wealthy since the Reagan era, according to Thom Hartmann.

Me: "Our system is completely down. We need your help immediately. We’re ready to pay the $40,000."
There was a brief pause on the line.
Consultant: "My emergency salvage rate for compromised systems is $120,000, paid upfront."
CEO: "That’s extortion! Tell him no!"
Consultant: "Your downtime is currently costing you $50,000 an hour. You have ten minutes to decide."
My CEO signed the wire transfer five minutes later in total silence.
The consultant fixed the entire leak in six hours.
Never try to discount the expertise you're going to end up paying triple to rescue later.
What's the most satisfying time you saw a company try to cheap out on talent only for it to backfire completely?

Zohran Mamdani just did what most Democrats and Republicans are too gutless to do.
He looked straight into the camera and said the quiet part out loud:
Republicans called Obama a socialist every single day for 8 years. It didn’t stop him.
Now they’re trying the same tired red-baiting on anyone who wants a New Deal instead of the raw deal working people have been force-fed for decades.
People are hungry for something real. Not more corporate welfare dressed up as “moderation.” Not more “public-private partnerships” that somehow always privatize the profits and socialize the losses.
Mamdani is right. The socialist smear is a dead tactic.
The only question left is whether the Democratic Party has the spine to actually deliver for the people who keep electing them… or if they’ll keep protecting the same donors who’ve been extracting wealth from this country for 40 years.
Keep going, Mayor.

Men after the Russell Brand trial: "So we have to get consent for *everything* now??"
Yes, mate. Yes you do.
That's how being a non rapist works.

For those scratching their heads because they don't understand population density, I hope this helps.
