A worker making $50,000 a year contributes to Social Security with 100% of their income. A CEO making $20 million a year contributes to Social Security with less than 1% of their income. Who agrees it’s time to scrap the cap?

"Third Way’s insistence that candidates avoid blaming the corporations and the rich presents a conundrum for would-be Democratic populists: how are they meant to make “the economy” a central talking point, if they don’t have anything to talk about?" theguardian.com/commentisfree/…

People should listen to what Shawn Fain actually has to say about about Trump and tariffs It's not easy to support targeted tariffs while opposing Trump's otherwise reactionary agenda, but the UAW is threading that needle pretty well

I'm noticing that a lot of the stuff the Trump administration does seems to have no tangible benefit for the country other than psychic pleasure for their hardcore base. From pardoning people who beat up cops on Jan 6. to deporting Afghan Christian asylees.
