Why do so many feel like they've fallen behind?
It's not because of immigrants, trans people, the “deep state,” or any other bogeyman trotted out by the GOP.
It's because big corporations and billionaires have rigged markets and siphoned off most of the economy's gains.

A small number of billionaires own and control our economy. Increasingly, they own and control our government through a corrupt campaign finance system.
This is not democracy. This is oligarchy.
We must overturn Citizens United and move to public funding of elections.

Trump’s billionaire buddies are trying to convince you that Trumpflation is necessary for the economy. Isn’t that something? Jet-setting tycoons looking down from their perch telling us WE have to suffer while THEY get tax cuts. Might as well have said “LET THEM EAT CAKE!”

Donald Trump and Elon Musk want to unilaterally close four out of every five Social Security offices, and replace the experienced, knowledgeable Social Security workers with AI chatbots.
We must keep fighting to protect the benefits and customer service we’ve already paid for.
I read that the number 1 group of people who import Fentanyl are AMERICANS. They come through our airports from suppliers. It’s also shipped on planes and ships through our airports and ports. What’s going to be done to curtail ourselves?

Corporate profits hit an all-time high last year and continued to rise in 2024.
Just so happens that in 75% of US industries, fewer companies control more of the business than 20 years ago.
Minimal competition means maximized price-gouging.

If DOGE were to return any money saved to the American people a la UBI it would immediately become the most popular thing anyone has ever done.

Having thoughtful, independent judges on these courts is a bulwark against an extremist takeover of our judicial system. We’ve got to keep getting this done, no matter how hard Republicans try to stop us. bostonglobe.com/2024/11/21/n…
