The Iran war puts Asia in an energy panic Stranded Gulf supplies are choking off the region’s economies

“It is up by 42% since hostilities began. American motorists are already paying over $3.40 for a gallon of petrol on average, around 50 cents more than on February 27th. In Europe prices of natural gas, of which the Gulf normally ships lots in liquefied form, are 92% higher than before the war.”

The health care system is a disaster thanks both to GOP obstruction AND to Dems using a near-supermajority to marginalize Medicare for All & create a public-option-free Heritage Foundation-style ACA empowering insurers to enrich themselves & fleece everyone else.

Thanks for attending my TED talk.

Just wait a few election cycles, assuming major elections will happen. They’ll find a way to be dipshits again.

Seven US Regime Change Wars, Ranked by Disastrousness Trump has killed Iran's supreme leader and is demanding 'unconditional surrender.' But history tells us that US-led regime change efforts abroad almost never bring positive results.

"Many Americans seem to have forgotten just how catastrophic US regime change wars have been in the past. So, with the risk of history repeating itself once again, here is Zeteo’s list of seven of the US’s most disastrous attempts at regime change, ranked"

Farm workers harvesting romaine lettuce

"Guillermo" is harvesting romaine lettuce in Maricopa CA. "This is a very difficult job. You need to work fast while you are continuously bending down and getting up and using a sharp knife to cut the lettuce." #WeFeedYou

Bad take. UBI is unconditional access to resources. It says, "I trust you. Show me what you can do." It is the power to refuse until the pay is right. It is the freedom to choose paid or unpaid work. It fosters community and societal participation.

And ending survival fear is a psychological need.

AIPAC 🇺🇸🇮🇱 @AIPAC More than 6 million Americans are members of AIPAC. Democrats, Republicans and Independents. We proudly participate in the political process and advocate for an alliance that helps keep America safer, stronger and more prosperous. We are unapologetic and we won't be deterred.

“We proudly participate in the electoral process” is a flat out lie from AIPAC. They create shadow super PACs with names like “Elect Chicago Women” and funnel millions into them so late in the process that disclosure doesn’t come till after the election.

This is a flagrant lie.
