Can someone explain to me how a billionaire paying $0 in taxes is "smart" but a laid-off worker getting their unemployment insurance benefits is "leeching off the system?"

I finished my PhD about 2 months ago, and I just want to share that: *I spent >5 of 6yrs convinced that I was uniquely behind or lost or dumb *I worked 50+hrs some weeks but 15 others *Rest and hobbies helped my science Struggling doesn't mean you don't belong. @OpenAcademics

It's always "$600 checks two years ago and 50-cent raises for workers are causing inflation" and never "$3 trillion from the Fed to bail out the stock market, $1 trillion in annual corporate stock buybacks and a 1,322% rise in CEO pay since 1978 are causing inflation"

It’s time we stop giving hardworking Georgians’ dollars away to millionaires. Under my tax rebate plan, families making below $250,000 a year — about 95 percent of income tax filers in the state — will see financial relief and support.

I hold the radical belief that the profits of a handful of oil companies are not more important than the future of the planet.

Clean air. They ruled against clean air. This means more respiratory illness. More cancer. More climate-fueled disasters. All because 6 people are owned by polluters. This Court is not legitimate and we don't have to pretend there is no recourse.

If you are okay with having Muslim, Jewish and Hindu students sit through a Christian prayer in public school, and not okay with having Christian students sit through a Muslim, Jewish or Hindu prayer, then it’s NOT religious freedom- it’s religious oppression.
