Lower our energy bills!

Gas companies are raking in high profits while our household bills go up. I've had enough, haven't you? In this world of crisis and chaos, homegrown wind and solar is the only way to guarantee lower, more stable energy bills for Britain. Let's make the UK Government get us off gas.

You know how ride-hail companies promised to let you know the fare in advance to avoid surprises? Well... I was quoted $30, and the final price was $55. You can request an automated adjustment to the original quote, but they hope you don't notice.

Saw a Lebanese cucumber for 9.99 AUD in the supermarket today. Price for a single one, not for one kg!Couldn’t believe it, so I took a pic. Later this arvo I harvested a fresh heirloom organic cucumber from my hügelkultur veggie patch. Practically for free, if you don’t count the price for seedlings, time and effort. Growing your own food makes so much sense, with ever increasing prices more than ever! Better quality, better taste, and you get free exercise and nature therapy ;)

Robert Reich @[email protected] on the consequences of #capitalism without guardrails and the empirical evidence disproving expectations of Chicago School #trickledowneconomics. We *need* #antitrust b/c capitalism w/o guardrails is nothing more than winner-take-all private #rentierism. (Rentierism = profits above what a well functioning market would allocate. Profits from #pricegauging," for example, are an example of this kind of "economic rent.")
