    A government pilot program in Ireland is giving 2,000 artists $350 a week
    with no strings attached, allowing them to concentrate on creative pursuits.
    It's the latest sign of growing international interest in universal basic income.

    How very Trump of him. If he broke the law prosecute him. Otherwise just pretend like he has an R next to his name and all your outrage will fade away.

    The only thing that has kept our currency from collapsing into hyperinflation is the Petro dollar and our military.

    92% of Dollar General’s employees earn less than a living wage.

    They reported $3.3 billion in profit last year.

    They could double every employee’s salary, except for the CEO who made $16.5 million, and still have half of a billion in profit.

    It’s the corporate greed.

    It's also just not a good idea to make Dollar General your career plan.

    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.
