Inflation rose by 22.6% from 2019-2024. In that same period, the 100 lowest-paying corporations paid their CEOs 34.7% more. They only raised employee pay by 16.3%. But they spent $644 BILLION on self-enriching stock buybacks. TRICKLE-DOWN IS A SCAM.

No war but class war. The Rich have opted out of the social contract.

Stock buy backs should be made illegal. People buy stock often to get dividends. These disappear after a buy back.

Healthcare or the lack of universal HC coverage is a big reason many Americans have to hold down their pathetic jobs. Corporate America is a big hoax! Fix healthcare and you are going to have a healthier happier workforce that’s not tied down to an employer taking risks and innovating in many ways.

Not to mention how many rounds of layoffs and other cost cutting measures like passing on healthcare premiums to employees reduced 401k match or none to name a few.

It’s a damn scam & we are NOWHERE near the end of it. Vance can sell that ugly bill ‘til he turns blue in the face; trump’s plan for our economy serves only the rich. We’ll need years! to pull ourselves out of the ditch he/Republicans are digging for us. They do NOT work for you & me; got it yet?

Yes, trickle down economics has been shown to be completely flawed, don't believe it. Only the rich benefit, the poor are exploited, time for the revolution, bring back Madame guillotine...

Kennedy was assassinated because of Executive Order 11110. To attempt to attenuate the economic model is a serious risk; this is unacceptable in a free world society. I have a very real architecture that will change the economic model to benefit 90% of Americans: am I next?
