Today, four friends, as a personal favor to me, made new donations to @marwilliamson 's Marianne2020.com . I told them that, in my opinion, it is vital for our nation to have her on a Democratic debate stage with the other presidential candidates in June. PLEASE RETWEET!

If rich people receive post retirement income, they call it “Deferred Compensation”. If working class people receive post retirement income they call it a “Pension”. Deferred Compensation is “Earned”, therefore Good. Pensions are “Undeserved”, therefore Bad.

Right! That's the difference between not taking money out of someone's pocket and putting money into someone's pocket. It takes a progressive to conflate the two very different acts. MLK knew.
