Minimum wage has been 7.25 since 2009. It wasn’t enough then and is a truthful statement of how the CEOs feel about the people making them record profits.
Media oligarchs be warned- we are coming for you...change your ways asap or become a poor man! ACTIVELY RESIST! Everything rapistTrump is blocked out! ✊️🇺🇸👍💯💙
They've been living in a thriving nation for seventy years and forty years ago they realized they can horde that good living away from the entire rest of the country and NOBODY IS STOPPING THEM.
Besides, inflation came way down from that (purported) 40-year high, anyway (which was caused by pent-up post-pandemic demand, and the ensuing supply chain issues, along with “greedflation” - businesses adopted the policy of “if everyone else is raising their prices, we will, too!” 🤬
The post-sanity, post-reality lying, gaslighting corporate media can spew whatever diarrhea they want on the feebleminded American food tubes. I won't be watching or listening.
Every GOP president for the last 120 yrs started a recession in his first term including Trump. We can live with 2.9 pct inflation in this economy with its strong employment, manufctg, GDP growth & wages far better than with increases in inflation, deflation & recession the GOP brings every time.
A lot of people don’t understand they’re being taking advantage of. Just wait until his job is outsourced or given to someone with H1B visa. Then he’ll change his opinion.
Was at a relative’s house this morning, they had one of the morning shows on and they were talking about the upcoming super bowl game and the ads.
$7 million for a 30 second spot on faux sports…

I didn’t think inflation was at a forty year high. The most recent numbers are: 2023 3.4%, 2022 6.5%, 2021 7.0%. Forty years ago would have been 1985 so they’ve cut off the financial probs of the early 80’s. I’ll list the highest in the 70’s, 80’s and 90’s for comparison. 🧵/1
We had a recession that began in 1980 and ran thru 1982. There was the “stagflation” of the 1970’s. So even with the govt doing all the stimulus to recover from Covid etc things have been calm.

Yeah, I seriously doubt that will be happening anytime soon.
And billionaires are richer at 100 years high
It’s like the guy with monster truck complaining about gas prices - it’s not the prices it’s the choice of how to use your resources
