Still no reason for a gun in her face, and definitely no reason for a gun in her children's faces. Police have a warrant for someone's equipment, I understand that. But terrorizing families for that? NO.

What a brave woman. We should spread this far and wide; people need to know about it. This is not supposed to happen in America.

There will be no update today.
At 8:30 am this morning, state police came into my house and took all my hardware and tech.
They were serving a warrant on my computer after DOH filed a complaint.
They pointed a gun in my face. They pointed guns at my kids..

I’m not for nationalizing all industries but I would be totally OK with nationalizing defense.

Military contractors make profit their goal. Pentagon officials should make the safety & security of the US their only goal. Those goals interface but they are not the same.

I’m glad I voted for him and I’m glad he won. That doesn’t mean I will agree with everything, nor did I expect to. My highest priority was to remove Trump from the presidency and I think it’s important that we did that.

Yes and. Also we need to end corporate subsidies, cozy relationship with big Pharma, overspending at the Pentagon. And I also think a wealth tax is a good idea.

Of course it’s on purpose! It’s the result of trickle down economics that has dominated since 1980, creating the massive transfer of wealth into the hands of 1%. Those people claimed the money would trickle down & lift all boats and obviously it has not.

You’re clearly an intelligent man. You know as well as I do that tax policy now is such that no matter how financially literate people are, things are skewed in the direction of increasing wealth for 1 per cent. Why can’t we just admit that and fix it? Everyone will be better off

It's not all gloom and doom at all, if you're in the club as it were. I know the upside of the system when it works for you. But too many can't get into the club today and that's what's wrong. Even before the pandemic 40% of Americans couldn't absorb a $400 unexpected expenditure

When tens of millions of hardworking people don't have time for their spouse, their kids, their life outside work - or if they have to work 2 or 3 jobs just to make ends meet - then thing are not on a positive trend. Not being a Debbie Downer here. Just saying.

So you're saying that since people can buy goods more cheaply they deserve to be cheated out of their pay?

A sitting board member of military industrial contractor Raytheon should NOT be heading the Pentagon. Terrible choice. I hope progessives in Congress will speak up loudly. politico.com/news/2020/12/07…

For 25 yr after WW2 productivity & worker's pay rose together & created middle class. In 1980 govt & co. policies started increasing CEO/stockholder pay while squeezing every $ possible from workers. If wages still rose w/ productivity we'd have no crisis of income inequality now

Hugely important from @jimmy_dore. Watch this and spread it around! We need @SpeakerPelosi to put the @RepJayapal Medicare4All bill up for a vote - and there’s a way to make it happen! youtube.com/iIqw-mTX6ro

Unless there is no evidence whatsoever, of course. In which case love means honoring a democratically decided election .

In the case of a Nazi, setting a strong boundary against their encroachment is an act of love for the rest of society.
