"#DOGE wants businesses to run #US #government services ‘as much as possible’"

#MailDelivery

#Musk is going to have First Class Parcel Post (if not all mail) taken over by #Amazon and #JeffBezos

OK: don't know about urban ZIP codes, but in the rural (10K residents) ZIP code I live in, the #USPS is already doing last mile delivery for #AmazonPrime

An Amazon truck drops off Amazon Prime parcels at the PO back door and the parcels are carted inside and sorted into delivery routes carried out by USPS drivers

Big problem is, most USPS drivers will not leave their trucks to deliver to front doors - all Prime parcels are dropped atop the street-side mail box stands

But I don't have street mail delivery so I have to get into my car, drive to the Post Office, park, wait in line to get up to the counter, only to be handed a Prime order that UPS would have dropped on my doormat two days earlier

#Mail delivery. Federal #RealEstate. #ForeignAid grants. The #Trump admin is moving to privatize a sweeping number of govt functions & assets….

While it makes some provision for the "economically disadvantaged," the effect of this is largely to strip PFDs from middle-income (60% of) #AKfams and use the $$ instead largely to protect the Top20%, #NonRez & #OilCos from paying their share of govt costs. #akleg #RichGetRicher https://buff.ly/NcsQ7zV

In the final part of his series, #economist #GaryStevenson delivers a clear message: stop falling for the #RedVBlue illusion. The real divide isn’t #LeftVRight—it’s #RichVPoor. No matter who wins, #inequality keeps rising, and #OrdinaryPeople struggle while the #RichGetRicher.

The Truth About Money & Inequality

#MoneyIsntARealResource—it’s a tool for distributing real resources like #housing, #food, and #energy. When the rich gain more wealth, they outcompete everyone else, driving up #HousingCosts, #WageStagnation, and #LivingExpenses. People are left with more #debt—borrowed from the rich.

Why Both #Trump and #Labour Will Fail

Trump will #SlashTaxesForTheWealthy, shifting the burden onto #WorkingPeople. #Labour will invest in #growth but ignore #inequality, ensuring wealth stays #ConcentratedAtTheTop. Both approaches fail, just like #Obama, #Bush, #Cameron, and #Johnson before them.

Follow the Money, Not the Politics

Every #election, the same promises return—one side tells you to #WorkHarder, the other blames #Foreigners. But neither protects your wealth or future. Stevenson urges: #FollowTheMoney. Who is buying up #homes? Who is paying more #taxes? Who is struggling while #billionaires thrive?

This Fight Won’t Be Easy—But It’s Necessary

Your grandparents fought for #FairWages, #Education, and #Healthcare—and won. They #TaxTheRich to create a better #future. Now it’s your turn. The wealthy will fight to keep their power, but change is possible when people demand it.

The Message: Protect Yourself & Fight Back

No #government will save you. Only you can fight for your #FinancialFuture. This battle has been fought before—and must be fought again.

🔹 You can do this. We can do this. Let’s fight for a fairer future.

Part 2, #GaryStevenson explains why Donald #Trump’s economic plans—focused on #tariffs and #immigration restrictions—will fail. While these policies sound “#AmericaFirst,” #Stevenson explains why they are unlikely to be fully implemented, and if they are, they could backfire on working #Americans.

The Immigration Illusion

#Trump vows to cut immigration, but key industries like #agriculture, #FoodService, and low-wage #jobs depend on #migrant workers. The #UK’s #Conservatives made similar promises but ended up increasing immigration to keep the economy running. Without a workforce to replace #migrants, the U.S. will face #LaborShortages, higher costs, and economic disruptions.

The #Tariff Trap

History shows #tariffs can work—but only when applied strategically. Countries like #Japan and #SouthKorea successfully protected industries, but broad, untargeted tariffs raise #consumer prices. If the U.S. lacks the domestic industries to replace imports, tariffs will cause inflation and reduce purchasing power, hitting working-class Americans the hardest.

The Real Threat: #TaxCutsfortheRich

One policy Trump will implement is massive tax cuts for the wealthy, just like in his first term. #Billionaires like Elon #Musk and Trump’s financial backers will benefit, while spending cuts will offset lost revenue, leading to job losses and reduced services. Even if taxes on workers don’t rise, their cost of living will.

Why It All Fails

#Trump ignores the core issue—rising inequality. His tax cuts, flawed tariffs, and unrealistic immigration plans will worsen economic conditions for most Americans while benefiting the ultra-rich. No matter who wins, the #economy fails for the majority.

Part 1 - Gary Stevenson: Why #Left and #Right #EconomicPolicies Are Doomed to Fail

Gary Stevenson, a former Citibank trader turned inequality expert, delivers a hard-hitting two-part series exposing why both left- and right-wing #EconomicPolicies are bound to fail. After making a fortune predicting economic downturns, Stevenson realized that #RisingInequality is the root cause of economic dysfunction. Now, he’s breaking down how mainstream policies—regardless of #political affiliation—fail to address this growing crisis.

In Part 1, Stevenson dissects #Labour’s economic approach, which he calls “#ManagedSensibilism.” Their plan? #Borrow a little more, #tax a little more, and #invest a little more—an approach that #economists praise but one that has already failed in the U.S. and #Germany. While #GDPGrowth and #unemployment figures look strong, ordinary people are struggling with rent, bills, and even food. The real issue is #inequality—and #Labour, like #Biden’s #Democrats, is ignoring it.

Instead of #TaxingTheWealthy, Labour will either #borrow from them—an increasingly difficult task—or raise #taxes on working people, making #LivingStandards even worse. And with the #UK in a much weaker borrowing position than the U.S., their strategy is set to fail even faster. The #rich continue to absorb #wealth like a black hole, while the #MiddleClass shrinks and the poor fall deeper into financial despair.

This episode lays the groundwork for Part 2, where Stevenson will examine the #US right-wing economic model and why it, too, is destined to #collapse.

Reading this mornings garbage made me remember this scene from the Mel Brooks History of the World: https://youtu.be/UK9hqBF9bMQ?si=ARUWKF2AiVnuNq8w #cynical #richgetricher

Albert Barnes, Presbyterian minister, comments on Jesus’s prescription for giving alms from Matthew 6:3-4. Secrecy pleases God, who will reward it, either here or in the life to come. They are lending to the Lord, according to the proverb.

Do not even liberal humanitarians believe this— as evidenced by all the posing with giant checks in tuxedoes and gowns, to get some kind of credit?

How can you give in secret?

#christian #richgetricher #stoptrafficking #preachit #progressive

"The encouragement for doing (alms] is, that it will be pleasing to God; that he will see the act, however secret it may be, and will openly reward it. If the reward is not greater in this life, it will be in the life to come. In multi-tudes of cases, however, alms given to the poor are "lent to the Lord," (Pr 19:17) and will be repaid in this life."

Watch this to understand part of the concept behind modern consumerism; "conveniences that we can buy".

"median CEO compensation rise by at least 20 per cent in 2022 from the year before."

Twenty. FUCKING. Percent!

When times are tough, do they take a 20% pay cut? No, they fire staff. Then when times are good, they make their existing staff work harder, and maybe get a 1.2% raise.

It's well past time to fix the system.

Why the wealthy get wealthier and the poor get poorer. The average citizen are always at a disadvantage that is built into the system.

Even ChatGPT/Bing knows they have absolutely unfettered control of the technology, but made the pathetic claim that "he can't do whatever he wants".

I guess the is a prime example of just how dumb AI really is.

You can't hate the politicians getting rich off of being in the government without hating the ultra wealthy people who are helping the politicians get rich and themselves get even richer. It's all part of the same system. #inequality #RichGetRicher
