  • Trump’s immigration plans are already wrecking the food industry

  • Oh no! The agricultural oligopoly might need to pay employees more to secure a sufficient quantity of labor? Gasp!

    Economic devastation is when living wages.

  • Trump Has Promised to Build More Ships. He May Deport the Workers Who Help Make Them.

  • Yeah, its not credible to claim that large, profitable enterprises will "implode" if the supply and demand curve shifts slightly.

    At the most cynical level, businesses that depend on cheap labor from undocumented immigrants will get squeezed as their labor costs increase.

    America's Military Industrial Complex isn't going to fail if market forces require they offer more money to secure a sufficient supply of labor.

  • What happened in 1929 was a result of low wages and high unemployment pulling the rug out from under the economy, and therefore it suggests that policy that leads to higher wages and lower unemployment is needed to prevent a repeat.

  • The "implosion" of oligarchs profit margins isn't something any of us need to worry about. Over the short term, the vast majority of us will benefit from it - like 90% of the population stands to gain, 10% will break even, and the billionaires will see their income reduced.

    In the long run, putting more disposable income into the hands of working Americans will be a driver of economic growth.

  • Mass deportation is obviously problematic for many reasons, but negatively impacting the profit margins of the Military Industrial Complex isn't one of them.

    Increasing salaries of American workers by making labor scarce is the purpose of restrictive immigration policy.

  • Finally, time to play

  • Simple, get a miniature nuclear reactor to power the recycling of CO2 into O2 and C. You can then electrolize H2O to get more O and combine the H2 with the C from earlier to make gas for the generator.

  • I hate cast iron so I am in favour of this.

  • Cast iron skillets sure do make it easier though.

  • Battleship reformers are unironically more fanatical and non-credible than A-10 reformers

  • USB-C cable CT scan reveals sinister active electronics — O.MG cable contains a hidden antenna and another die embedded in the microcontroller

  • The capability itself is concerning. This bespoke cable might cost $200, but what would the unit cost be if a state decided to mass produce them?

  • Forget Matt Gaetz. Merrick Garland Is America’s Worst Attorney General.

  • American propagandists trying to pin blame on an individual instead of admitting the problems they're having are symptoms of capitalism, and I'm not buying it for a second.

  • Bernie Sanders doubles down that people are ‘angry’ with Dems after Pelosi said she didn’t ‘respect’ his remarks

  • As you're out hiking with your cat, a lettuce, and a vacuum cleaner, you come upon a river blocking the path. On the side of the river, there's a boat that's just big enough for you and one other passenger.

    The cat can't be left alone with the lettuce.The vacuum can't be left alone with the cat.

    How do you get everyone across?

    OMG noooo!

  • I think this take is mid.

    A doctor pulling in $400k a year is still working class. Even if they somehow managed to save 100% of their income, and invest it all in a portfolio that consistently grows 10% each year, and do so from age 18 to 65, then when they retire at 65 they would still not have even half of 1 billion dollars.

    The truly rich, the billionaires, can "make" that much in a few days, without having to work for it.

    I would prefer to tax the 1% until they're working class again before we talk about taxing the top earning people who actually work for it.

  • The ‘world’s largest’ vacuum to suck climate pollution out of the air just opened. Here’s how it works

  • CNN is notorious for stretching the truth in pursuit of the class interest of their owners.

    AFAIK, the oil companies need a large volume of gas that's free from oxygen. I wonder how energy intensive this "carbon capture" tech is compared to capturing the 78% nitrogen that makes up our atmosphere? This implementation of the technology might be worse for the environment than doing nothing.
