This man should not be in jail. #FreeDanielHale
This is a story about how a man risked everything trying to tell us about what we were doing in Afghanistan, but almost no one cared to listen. nymag.com/intelligencer/arti…

Beyond belief.
The Koch family could literally pay the entire $20 billion to end homelessness in America & still be $13.4 billion richer than they were before the pandemic. Instead, they funded an effort to end the eviction moratorium that could throw millions out on the street. Greed kills.

It won’t work perfectly. No law ever works perfectly. But that’s not a reason not to do everything possible to pass it.

It’s true too many very high earners avoid paying taxes. That’s something Ro Khanna is trying to fix. But we also need a wealth tax, 2% over $50M and another 1% over $1B.

I hear you. I went back-and-forth but I felt it was the right thing to do. I want to end every substack with a meditation or prayer and for the people who don’t do that, they can just pass over it and that’s OK too. Thanks for reading till that part!:)

I agree. The will of the people is not the problem. The problem is how many barriers there are to the will of the people being done.

The breakdown of democracy is happening now & I’m certainly not naïve about how hard this road is. I don’t think anyone thinks any of this is easy or is going to be easy in the days ahead. We need to psychologically orient ourselves to that & try to be kind while it’s happening.

We need a #wealthtax. But not every rich person is a greedy bastard. The problem isn’t that some people can make money; the problem is that not enough people get a chance to. One person’s wealth shouldn’t be gained at the expense of other people having a chance to get in the game
