Every once in a while I tell people from other countries about how the health insurance system works in the US and they are aghast. Yesterday a guy straight up didn’t believe me when I said people can die because of not being able to afford medicine. He was sure I meant in the distant past.

Reminder: At the start of his legal career, RFK Jr. failed the bar, was forced out as a D.A., and got arrested for heroin. Without the Kennedy name, that story ends there.

Remember: The recipe for economic growth isn’t tax cuts for the rich. It’s investment in our people — in health care, infrastructure and education — to build a strong middle class. You don't grow the economy through trickle-down nonsense.

a thing i think about RFK, Jr., now and again, is that he slid into harvard on his name and could've slid into any number of well-compensated no-show jobs on the same and he was still like, "no. narcotics sales."

CEOs are paid ~300x their typical worker. This isn't because execs are more valuable — they've gamed the system. Corporate stock buybacks, which artificially boost share prices, are on pace to hit record highs. Stock-based pay made up ~70% of CEO compensation. Hello?
