It’s a real shame that men are so afraid of strong smart women & that they’re in control of their women. We could have been better than we are today. The DOW is down 2000 points. There goes your retirement unless musk stole it first!
“Labor is prior to, and independent of, capital. Capital is only the fruit of labor, and could never have existed if labor had not first existed. Labor is the superior of capital, and deserves much the higher consideration.” - Abraham Lincoln, First Annual Message to Congress, December 3, 1861
That's right, let's show them who really holds the power! Show up April 5 - https://HandsOff2025.com
AND SIGN to join the Nationwide strike! When enough people sign, we go on strike as a nation and our government will have to listen. We are stronger when we work as one.
It looks like Kendrick ushered in the Petty Era just in time. His relentless dog-walking of Drake has served as the perfect model for the people’s repudiation of the Ketamine Kowboy Klown. Turns out we hate Elon just as passionately as we hate Drake
Exactly. Who said that Marxism is dead? Quite contrary. Labor vs capital confrontation is more tense than ever. Doesn't matter, labor lives in the industrial revolution slums, or post IR bungalows with 2 car garages. It is still The Labor and is still being exploited.
That is so true the billionaires need the gratitude unwashed to make able to wash and look nice while we the working class look like what labor says the great unwashed . Remember people there only to classes in the world billionaires or working class if not the first your second one .....
The working class in the USA has been trained (Econ 101?) to suppose it does need billionaires and without them they would have no jobs, the economy would cease to function, no one of "merit" could develop new products or delivery methods, no one of "merit" would dominate and control our government.
Who were the necessary people during covid? Answer: workers . . . Healthcare workers, delivery people, truck drivers waste removers, caretakers, service people in general. Billionaires ... not on the list.
And disenfranchized former Democrats need candidates, remotely resembling ACTUAL Democrats instead of Weimar Republicans United Democracy/ Lincoln Project kleptocrats Israel ALLOWS us to lote in to feed upon us, spew meaningless platitudes euphemized yuppie bullshit to upwardly redistribute "value?"
In the AI industry people are taking about just not needing workers at all, or even laws similar to 1984. billionaires can retreat to their by bunker and humans can be wiped out
Where will the proletariat get the money to buy the shit cranked out of those robotic factories? Will we all live in some utopia where we all have enough $ for Ferraris and live in 30 room mansions paid for by govt checks? Where will the money come from? How will it be apportioned?
That is my next Vice President and then my president! Walz should get President next time. Kamala should be kicked out for non-participation. Absent on the job . With a side of sulking!
Quick lesson on civics while we're here...... Governments are supposed to work FOR the good of its people.
If your government does not do this, you're in a dictatorship, which isn't really governing per se.
no what will really scare the be-jesus out of the MAGA crowd is when this is all wrapping up and we are rounding them up and kicking them out of the country. Then and only then will reality sink in.
Not true. Now more than ever the States needs their billionaires, but I doubt they'll be there. The reason why tariffs led to recessions from what I understand is In part, the need for capital to build the factories and pay the people to produce those now expensive goods in the States.
well, we don't need billionaires... but we do need people with bigger pockets to pay us for the time we work... unless we are getting rid of housing, fuel, and food costs for good and going back to a hunter gather life style. I'm for it personally.. but not thinking most will be.
Will they need us for much longer? That might be a moot question. AI and robotisation might make millions of jobs obsolete. There would be no need for workers then, as the Digital economy transforms into an AI-run one.
She needs to rephrase that as Christian Nationalists, MAGATS and Republicans worship billionaires but the rest of us normal working class don't need them 🖖
Yea... no sorry without money to finance companies there would be no jobs not surprised this kind of stupid far left rhetoric is coming from where its coming from. We need billionaires we just need to be more like Mark Cuban and less like Elon Musk.
We don't need billionaires, and a single human can never *need* a billion dollars. A *company* can be worth a billion dollars, and can *need* billions for R&D, etc. of course. What you are attempting to counter does not address the OP's statement.
What we really need is Industrial age Billionaires, Billionaires who build infrastructure to support their own corporate growth. Granted we do have them to a degree, we just do not have them on the level of Carnegie, Rockefeller, or Ford.
I mean Ford built roads to sell more cars kind of thing.
Yes we do need billionaires do you even understand just how expensive some companies even relatively small companies are to establish. I will give you we do not need Trillionaires at least not at this point in our evolution but as technology evolves we may eventually even need that.
There are many very important companies out there that investors would have never loaned a single penny self financed evolution. Hell many colleges that would not even exist without the Billionaires that built them. Parks that would not exist without the Billionaires that donated the lands.
Taking you have never owned a business or if you have you have not employed many people. It is not even remotely cheap and if you want any chance for success you need the wealth to carry your operations yourself for at least 5 years for larger companies, a decade for corporations.
You have zero idea how economics work huh? Spending money creates money always has always will. Even those stupid, which ketchup is better studies create jobs which create growth with create tax revenue. Every dollar we spend creates around $3.70 in economic growth. Cutting spending is a slow death.
My good friend before he had cancer drove many famous people to Monaco and you know what he told me. It was the rich billionaire businessman that tipped him the movie stars didn't they're not equal in their morals and their ethics, and you cannot put them all in the same box.
Jay Z and Beyoncé are wonderful people for unity and support of all moral and ethical people and have love in their hearts for their family and their children and Europe. They have money you can't throw everyone in the same category. You don't know what they've been through and what they've achieved
If we all realize that we need each other and that we're social animals that depend on each other for products and services and emotional support then it would be a better world
Conservative, Republican voters place much more ethical or moral significance on economic power, billionaires, the donor class, than they do common voters. They suppose the former wise, full of merit, moral, beloved of God; they suppose the latter a bunch of worthless commoners and peasants.
I read at least some conservative, Republican voters explained they voted for Lord Dampnut and his fascists specifically to get more Supreme Court rulings like Citizens United, to give economic power, billionaires, corporations, CEOs, Wall St., a bigger role in our political system.
The fucking morons who lapped up that trickle-down bullshit are of the same ilk as the slackjaws who fell for the "It's my money, and I want it NOW!" commercials.
Short answer: absolutely right.
Longer answer: Read the relevant parts of ‘The Communist Manifesto’.
I’m not advocating a Communist revolution, just a reappraisal of the perceived relationship between the richest and poorest in the US. It’s workers who make $, not the Trumps and Musks. Strike.
The billionaires and their apologists offer the argument against, with the classic: "We'll leave and take our money with us!" Cool. Take what you have in the bank, but your shares are now worthless, and we own your factories, equipment, land, properties, and other assets owned by the company. Bye!
The Working Class built the big corporations (like Tesla) ... and, the Working Class can tear them down if they abuse their workers!! WE have the power ... not them.
Ultra dependent Sheeple have a hard time grasping this simple concept or more importantly, practicing it to where it then comes to a habit-forming less dependency mode of being.
The Billionaires want slaves. It's all about their "Great Reset". He is not only going to bankrupt the USA, he is going to default on the $31.5+ Trillion deficit. It's the only explanation for this. Then 50 GOP Billionaires will each take a US state as an individual country. There will be no USA.
If you have no capital your only asset is your labor. If there wasn't a market for labor you'd have no assets.
It is supposed to be symbiotic in nature by determining your worth based on the need for your skills and their availability.
Not for long, Elon has designed AI robots to replace us. He himself said they will outnumber humans worldwide by 2030. They build themselves so the number increases very rapidly. Remember all the drone activity? Any ideas on how that might fit in?
MAGA are funny, they insist that “whites” are dying out and need to reproduce more, and yet not only do they demand that women stay in the kitchen, forcing the burden on men’s paychecks, but now they just told us to take all our hopes of financial security and stick it. They have no plan.
Yes! Who will harvest food sun up to sun down, work nights,clean houses and hotels, work fast-food, for $7 hour? The workers pay their taxes contributing to next year's budget. No work, zero tax contribution.
They are economic parasites taking the working class $$ and trickling it down to their offshore accounts. Now, our precious billionaires need $trillions in tax”relief” when the parasites pay meager taxes to the country in the first place. 😏
This is the exact reason that Elon and others are so busy perfecting robots.
Robots are currently working in manufacturing and food preparation/service as well as food production/processing.
Human observers will greatly reduce the workforce.
That's basically the Motto of the Green Party, People's Party and Democratic Socialists of America. If your Dem or Repub, please change your Party to 3rd Party. I hope the Green Party can join forces with these other 2 Parties and create a consensus and a genuine Liberal Coalition. Stronger together

Of course now with Trump, Musk & the MAGA GOP you don’t have to move.
@aoc.bsky.social @sanders.senate.gov
Why collapse the economy?
Why decimate the CDC, NIH, USAID, etc.?
They have no use for the elderly, disabled, etc., already. Soon they will have no use for most of us.
Stand & fight.

Distribute the wealth now!
Bring in UBI now!
#ubi
an idea whose time has come.
Businesses need capital and wages.
What is more needed is balance.
May require Several billionaires to be removed before the rest stop doing their nasty business.
Dimwits with too much money
#TaxTheRich!
If your government does not do this, you're in a dictatorship, which isn't really governing per se.
Which is pretty obvious if you think about it for 5 seconds. People die and retire all the time. The world doesn't break.

So they're making a leaner America that costs less by letting them die.
Rich people are the problem, because they didn't earn their wealth.
Not the billionaires.
I mean Ford built roads to sell more cars kind of thing.
Yet.. FUNNY THING.. that Bible trump keeps waiving around upside down SAYS almost the exact opposite.
Too bad they can't read!
For all those “brave” Americans afraid of something they never lived… I bet it’s much better now…
Feel great yet?
Maga's have to give up on self immolation
millionaires can only hope of becoming a billionaire them selves
Thats why the Federal Minimum wage as never been raised since 2009.

Without employees working corporate will lose lucrative contracts due to failure to supply
Corporate shares will become worthless causing billionaire investors to lose everything they've scammed from you
End Elon
End Trump
