Let’s be clear: ICE injured and detained the president of SEIU California for peacefully observing. ICE picked the wrong side. The wrong state. The wrong person. and the wrong union. David Huerta stood up. And now 750,000 SEIU workers are standing up behind him. seiuca.org/press-releas...

The article puts "70 percent!!" in the headline, but explains that, based on an average income, that amounts to around $4,000. How much does the average American pay for health insurance (alone)? The number I find is around $7,000 a year. Per person. In US dollars! So almost $10K Canadian.

If you run a school gaming club, or are thinking of starting one, these tutorials have a lot of good advice, particularly on how to ‘read the table’ and work to keep everyone involved.

He is a union apprentice and raising three special needs kids, two of them from his wife's previous relationships so yes he is certainly in the running.

If you like cyberpunk at all as a genre and you want something that’s not just aesthetic and violent, but in depth, creative, and with actual community and social themes, you’d be hard pressed to find a better game. Plus it’s like $40 plus shipping!

if you want to bring back the prosperity* and security of mid-century american life then you need high rates of unionization, a generous social insurance state, and widespread, freely available education. www.msnbc.com/opinion/msnb...

A lot of people seem to be under the belief that the post-war factory jobs their parents and grandparents had were good jobs because they were masculine and tough instead of, say, protected by a union under a progressive tax rate and a massive surplus

People who are looking for a way to fight Trump, I have it for you in one name: Kilmar Abrego-Garcia. He's the poor guy who got pulled off the street, declared a gang member for no reason, then sent off to that hell-hole in El Salvador. Fight for him because this case will unravel everything. 🧵

Not surprisingly, Trump’s overall tax and tariff proposals would make the very rich much richer and working families poorer. If you earn less than $360,000 a year, your taxes are going to go way up. If you’re in the top 1%? Don’t worry. You’ll save big.
