@mathowie Reagan gutted June Carter's national mental health bill. How many mass shootings would have been prevented with Federal healthcare aid?

He was nothing more than a puppet for the oligarchy right-wing.

Another tech giant laying off thousands just because everyone else is. Despite record-breaking profits. Again. Expect the C-level executives of IBM and SAP to get raises and bonuses for their "hard work" as well.

Is this how we want to work? Do we always want to be in fear of random layoffs, with no rationality, no reason? Do corporate boards want to reward people who are only smart enough to make broad worker-cuts because it's fashionable?

Do consumers want to continue to patronize these same corporations?

IBM Cuts Thousands of Employees in Latest Tech Layoffs

It follows the computing giant spinning off parts of its business.

@hawaiianeye797 He tried to run away, but he was really Tyred.

Now, he's a flat Tyre.

And the cops are reTyred.

@missy_lynn @ashinillinois Porn is similar to getting hit on. Most of it, you don't want. But some of it you do.

@ericajoy Earning $52 Billion dollars in the same quarter that you lay off 10,000 people is an evil choice.

@westtexasjesus @maxkennerly Neither am I surprised that the CEO of Microsoft got a 10% pay raise, not long before he announced these "difficult" decision to fire 10,000 employees.

@RobertMaguire Other countries have socialized medicine to treat mentally ill folks.

The U.S. just waits until they snap and kill other people.

No healthcare for you!

@JamesGleick But how else can we pay for a huge party with Sting?

@maxkennerly Partying with Sting hours before cutting 10,000 employees is an admission they revel in mass layoffs.
