Over the last 40 years the US govt has presided over the most massive transfer of wealth in our history; 1% now controls more $ than the bottom 90%. They create a veil to make it all seem too mysterious for us poor plebeians to understand. But it’s not mysterious. It’s just theft

American citizens have been trained to expect far too little. From Day One in the Oval Office, Joe Biden should start shoveling money from the coffers of the U.S. government into the pockets of the American people. It really is that simple. The need is dire and the money is there

The conversation needs to become a thunderous noise, so great it rocks even the hardest heart and shakes the very walls of Congress: The Pentagon doesn’t need the money. Corporations don’t need the money. The PEOPLE need the money. They need it directly and they need it quickly.

Jeff Bezos has gotten $78 billion richer during the pandemic and Amazon has paid zero federal taxes for 3 years. It’s not just a matter of how we can be OK with that. It makes you wonder how even he can be OK with that. #WealthTax

“There is a huge amount of suffering out there. The economy needs the spending.” - Janet Yellen. These words from a new Treasury Secretary are exactly what we need to hear. $2000 a month for everyone until the pandemic is over would be perfect. 1K/mo. after. #DirectCashRelief

The greatest moral challenge of our generation is to get the $ out of politics.With this SCOTUS it's unreasonable to think can overturn Citizens United anytime soon. But our goal can be a constitutional amendment to establish public funding for federal campaigns. And to pass HR1!
