Those subsidies mostly go to huge Ag corps that pretend they’re split up into hundreds of little family farms…

It also wouldn’t be running out of wages hadn’t been stagnating for the last several decades.

As more and more people earn less and less of the country’s output, that means more of it is above that cap, in the hands of the rich, and never put into the fund.

It doesn’t fund itself, but it’s a completely separate fund [bucket of money] than the rest of the government budget, with a specific tax that goes directly to it and nothing else.

Too bad “dark” Brandon couldn’t appoint a competent attorney general. Or stand up to the Israeli genocide. It so any of the important things that could have prevented voters not caring to turn out, having felt abandoned and ignored… But at least he said some things

I just think we shouldn’t shield these evil people by pretending it’s “the business” doing it. It’s humans. Really really shitty humans, but they made the decision to do this to a kid, on camera, thinking it wouldn’t immediately backfire in this age of social media.

So not only are they assholes, but also fucking stupid.

Nah. There was a meeting of actual humans who got together and decided to trick a child hoping no one would notice. Said meeting likely cost more than the said console did in salaries, too.
