Here’s some perspective.

Americans:
•Cancel student debt!
•Cancel medical debt!
•Make insulin free!

Most of Developed World:
•What is student debt?
•What is medical debt?
•Insulin is already free!

What GOP calls “socialism”—even conservative parties in most developed nations call a “human right.”

Tax Jeff Bezos, billionaires, and corporations so they pay their fair share!

This is Ben and Jerry. Yup. Ol Ben and Ol Jerry. The ice cream guys. The people, not the corporation. And here's what's on our mind: Jeff Bezos and taxes. You see, Jeff Bezos blasted himself into space. Elon Musk is on deck. And if this billionaire space race reminds us of one thing, it's this: Billionaires like Bezos and Musk just aren't paying their fair share of taxes under today's tax code. Despite being among the world's richest billionaires, Bezos and Musk pay a tax rate lower...

MoveOn
Take action with MomsRising this Tax Day and tell Congress to #TaxtheRich!

Today is Tax Day and we have one very clear message for our elected leaders: we need the Congress to make the super rich and big corporations pay their fair share in taxes so our families can get the policies they need and deserve like childcare, paid family and medical leave, and care for the aging and people with disabilities. MAKE A CALL to Congress calling on them to #TaxtheRich this Tax Day!

The only good capitalist is a regulated capitalist.

The only good billionaire is a taxed billionaire.

The only good fascist is a... wait, there are no good fascists.

We should not just #TaxBillionaires , we should be more heavily taxing anyone making over 1 Million per year (even in the most oppressive Cost of Living areas, you don't need over 1 million a year).

A quick history lesson. From 1940-1980:
•Wealthiest paid 70-94% marginal tax
•0 of them went broke from taxation
•0 of them left USA
•All remained exceedingly wealthy
•Manufacturing boomed
•The middle class was 62% of US economy (It's now 40% post 'trickle down scamenomics)
•We had the strongest middle class growth in US History

Let's do that again. Stop protecting billionaires. Start taxing them.

Capitalism is a magic system where a relative handful of douchebags screwing everyone over is somehow what’s best for all of society.

This is extraordinary.

The Montana House has banned Rep. Zooey Zephyr from the House for the rest of the session.

I wonder how her constituents feel about losing their full representation and their voice.

And so the attack on democracy continues.
In plain sight.
