The final sentence is the most telling. The GOP abandoning financial support of public education, coupled with the passage by SCOTUS of the Orwellian-named “Citizen’s United” has created the voting block that twice now have rejected competent female leaders when contrasted with a side-show huckster.
Forehead slap!
We are living once again, in the long arc of the moral universe bending….towards the amoral.
AfD's co-leader Tino Chrupalla is attending TGF's Inauguration. Musk invited Tino. This is part of Musk's meddling in the political battles now in Germany.
History repeating itself so much like Mussolini. How he lost power but regained it to never relinquish it till forced. Fascism has become the Republican Party.
I am afraid that these examples in our history and quotes might serve to make some think well things will swing back and the ship will right itself. But we are here from disengagement complacency and ignorance. The oligarchs captured the media, the Bully Pulpit,the Congress,and the Supreme Court. How do we change this?

I have been aware of this number of $50 trillion of "stolen" money for awhile. The other day I got to wondering ..... if that money was paid back to the citizens today, how much would each person receive? I worked with AI to find an answer. AI and I assumed a fund was started fifty years ago with one Trillion dollars, we added one Trillion each year for 50 years and assumed a reasonable growth rate of 5%. The answer to this most important question, which NO-ONE is talking about (God forbid)? I think it should be shouted from the roof tops!!!!!
I guarantee you, it will shock you. I was shocked.
I WONDER WHY NO-ONE HAS MENTIONED WHAT EVERY CITIZEN OF THIS UNITED STATES SHOULD BE PAID !!!!!! ? (the answer is very close to $700,000,000.)
Just imagine what our natural economy would look like if that had been shared even the least bit fairly!!!
Your math is messed up. There are 250 million people in the U.S.
Give each one $4 and that's a billion dollars. Give each one $4,000 and that's a trillion dollars. Multiply by 50 to get $50 trillion so you get $200,000 dollars. You cannot compound interest for something like this, as it is built in the transfer of the wealth, which is continuously being invested. However, you can see the real number is a lot, $200,000 dollars per person. If you're married, that's $400,000, enough to buy a home in many parts of the country.
Heather - been following you for a few months and appreciate the quality and relevance of your posts. I’m curious as to whether or not we need to start making scaled comparisons to the fall of Rome? I use the word “scaled” since standard time comparisons aren’t relevant due to the technology age and the advent of commercial artificial intelligence. Rome took centuries to fall. If Trump has recently crossed the Rubicon (J6 or 2025 inauguration?), do you think this is the beginning of the end of the USA Empire and can that happen within the next four years?

Musk uses disinformation to fight democracy in America, Germany, Norway, Canada, and Brazil. Send him back to South Africa 🇿🇦

Yes, the last sentence tells one and all what has indeed gone wrong with the American people. It is obvious what is not being taught in school.

Trump will be governing by an organized mob with organized money…the worst of both worlds !
Is this available as a written work?

The rich get richer and the poor get poorer and pregnant
Thanks Heather. Everyone should listen to this. But they won’t.
