Paying workers more requires a national debate about inflation and productivity. Paying the CEO another $40 million requires a board meeting and a press release. We live in a clown economy.

パドレスのプレラーGMがダルビッシュ有投手の復帰について言及! 「復帰に向けてリハビリと準備を続けている。高いレベルでプレーするために何が必要かを誰よりも理解している選手だ」 ーー去就の決断時期について 「厳格な期限があるとは考えていない」 「チームに貢献できると本人が判断すれば戻ってきてくれるでしょうし、本人の意向を尊重してサポートしていきます」 「球団にいてくれること自体が極めて大きな強み。サンディエゴの環境を熟知しており、日本球界出身の選手たちからも絶大なリスペクトを受けている。常にパドレスにとって大きなプラスだ」 今年8月に40歳を迎えたダルビッシュ投手 まだまだMLBで活躍する姿を見ていたい🔥 #ダルビッシュ有 #パドレス

I don’t know why this needs to be said, but people who send their kids to private schools should not be serving on public school boards.

100% this 🎯 A person on the school board sending their kid to private school not only does not have any "skin in the game" but I can guarantee does not have the best interest of the school system.

I am sick to death of hearing 'we pay billions in welfare' like it is paid out and disappears into thin air. People on benefits do not put their money offshore - they SPEND it back into the economy.

One of the best charts I've seen explaining how health insurance costs are silently choking workers. If your job gives you a 4% raise, health care sucks away one-third of it. Food, gas, etc. feel more expensive because health care is devouring your salary. masshpc.gov/sites/default/fi…

European food standards. I lived about 5/8 of my life in the U.S. and the last 3/8 of it in Europe. You absolutely feel the difference in the food. I feel much better living in Europe on account of the food alone, and that’s with me picking up one or two not so healthy lifestyle habits since I’ve been living here. And we can do this for a lot cheaper than Europeans do because we aren’t nearly as protectionist toward domestic farmers as Europe is. (That is, assuming we go back to normal trade policy.)

Merge the applications for all federal benefit programs in one central portal that informs you all programs you are eligible for and creates one application process.
What is an unsexy policy that if passed would immediately help millions of people?
