5 years ago: “An incalculable loss”

Today: Banning masks and restricting vaccine access

A new study shows 60% of Americans don’t have basic necessities to live. My hot economic take is everyone making $100K or less should pay $0 federal income tax. They pay enough in state, county, city, property, sales, & toll tax.

That kept money will go into local economies, ignite small biz growth, & get people out of debt. Make up any gap from lost federal tax by taxing billionaires & billion dollar corps at 1940-1980 rates.

200M Americans win. 800 billionaires are still billionaires.

Do It

Did you know:
-CDC reports 216 child deaths this flu season—most in 15 years
-Measles surpasses 1000 cases—first time in 30 years
-USA has the lowest life expectancy & highest infant & maternal mortality of any developed nation on Earth

This horror is what RFK + the for profit health scam industry has wrought us. Smh
