The #WealthGap isn’t just growing - it’s exploding. Wages stagnate while profits soar.
A few billionaires control more wealth than all the other people combined - and with that, billionaires control politics and who is in government!
#UBI doesn’t “punish success” - it ensures #everyone has a chance to succeed. Because no one should have to beg for basic survival in the richest era in history.

#petersinger asked "Would you save a drowning child at the small cost of getting your shirt wet?"
If your answer is yes, you should sacrifice small luxuries like eating out and redirect the savings to #charity .
A tough pill to swallow. But if true, a society that views donation to non-profits as just optional and praiseworthy is evil. It led to #wealthgap , #climatechange , #enshittification and #latestagecapitalism .
Do you agree?

Four years from today, the #USA will have been weakened economically, socially, and diplomatically. We will be the laughingstock of civilized countries, who will be shocked at how far, and how fast, we’ve fallen.
American influence in world affairs will have virtually disappeared.
#Hate crimes will be at record levels. The #wealthGap between the 1% and the rest of us will have skyrocketed, as will the national debt and the trade deficit.
The world’s population of displaced people will have grown by tens of millions, as #Republicans slap one another on the back to congratulate themselves on having denied refuge to the poor, the hungry, the huddled masses yearning to be free.
At home, #women’s #healthcare will lie in tatters. The number of unwanted children and maternal deaths will rival those of the most backwards nations on Earth. Millions of citizens will be without #healthinsurance.
American children and adults will be dying in record numbers from previously eradicated diseases.
**Watch out, the oligarchs are here to stay!** Money talks, and it's drowning out the rest of us. Let’s balance the scales. #EconomicFairness #WealthGap
The Palo Alto school district in California spent about $7K more per student than the minimum required to achieve national benchmark test scores.
