"To parry the accusation that she flip-flopped on whether she would seek to ban fracking, Kamala Harris introduced an unexpected new line of argument: That Biden’s signature climate legislation was actually a handout to Big Oil."

"Last week, a DC federal court rejected Denka’s request to stall an EPA rule that gave the company 90 days to lower the amount of chloroprene and ethylene oxide it emits into the air. Both are potent air toxics that can cause cancer..."
But thx to #SCOTUS the EPA is losing all its power to regulate and our corrupt govenor will probably get his way and keep poisoning his constituents. Its a shame how many dumbasses we have here that believe what that clown says

American Capitalism is just all scams now:
"...in places like Atlanta, Austin, Dallas, & Miami, where RealPage controls pricing for most apartments, rents have surged despite vacancy rates hovering around 10%, a decade-long peak. This isn't about undersupply, it's a deliberate removal of units."
This is price-fixing, a crime, but because rich white people did it, it will go unpunished or swept under the rug

Biden has let #ApartheidIsrael have their way in everything; cross all his red lines, covered for war crimes, financed/facilitated a genocide in gaza, and turned a blind eye to the destruction and 500+ murders in the West Bank and israelis hate him for it

the savings rate in the US has been going down for ever generation, but it is now NEGATIVE and has been for more than a year, 5 quarters, which is the longest period since The Great Recession. The savings rate is a leading indicator, which means it moves before the general economy and is one indicator economic predictors like the Conference Board use

More Perfect Union:
Red Lobster had $2.3B in sales in 2021. Now it's filing for bankruptcy. Some blame endless shrimp, but the truth is simpler: private equity
Golden Gate Capital, a private equity firm, bought them in 2014.
To finance this deal, Golden Gate sold off Red Lobster's real estate to another entity —American Realty Capital Properties — and then immediately leased the restaurants back.
Suddenly, restaurants had extra rent expenses...
