Bed Bath & Beyond has filed for bankruptcy shortly after spending $1B in stock buybacks & cash payments to shareholders. Employees of 20 years got 0 notice & $0 severance.

It wasn't inflation. It wasn't labor cost. It is 100% corporate greed.

Tax billionaires. Unionize workers. Protect our economy.

Federal minimum wage in:

2009: $7.25

2014: $7.25
2015: $7.25
2016: $7.25
2017: $7.25
2018: $7.25
2019: $7.25
2020: $7.25
2021: $7.25

The result: It's now worth 41% less today than it was in 1968.

USA the last 1 week:
•Black teen shot for ringing a doorbell
•Two teen girls shot for sitting in a car
•A 7 mo pregnant woman & her unborn child were shot at a Walgreens
•20-year-old woman shot dead for turning into a driveway

Imagine thinking the solution is even MORE guns.😐

A Ramadan soon ends—shout out to front line Muslim workers on their feet all day while fasting for 15 hours.

I’ve been there. The long retail hours. The double shifts as a waiter that pays $2.13/hr. The dry lips & hoarse throat. The thirst. The work so incessant you realize the time to break fast was over an hour ago and you completely forgot to eat. And all the worse if you work outdoors. Exhausting is an understatement.

Thank you. I know that doesn’t count for much. But we see you. Godspeed.
