@paulkrugman Most telling stat in Vox piece: poverty cut by 1/3 post-covid BEFORE stimulus kicked in. (Stimuli now have it down by half.) So...unemployed workers gave up poverty wages and exited poverty only thru gov support. That is a broken economy.

What are some of the best ideas you've heard for changing our education system?

Senate F&C this morning, Gov’s bill offers $200,000 tax credits ($2 mill aggregate) for individuals and CORPORATIONS to donate to private schools. Current tax credit is $150. Yes, you read that correctly. Right Now Technologies? Petra Academy? Nothing to see here. #mtpol #mtleg

@amyjo_weaver Not everyone wants to be an entrepreneur with hustle-stress. My friend the general contractor dreams of becoming an electrician who leaves troubles behind at 5. What if everyone was offered a job with dignity (that actually paid their bills)??

AT&T lobbied hard for the 2017 tax cuts and said it would create tons of jobs. It saved them $21 billion plus another $3 billion annually. Since then it has cut 42,000 jobs, gave its ex-CEO a $64 million pension and gave investors $44 billion in dividends theguardian.com/business/2021/…

What we really need is a law that makes it illegal to give senators food and water while they're filibustering.

Protesting Montana (Maryland) Congressman Rosendale in Butte! Coward wouldn’t come talk to us. He yelled “Go get a job”. There were retirees there. He’s pathetic. He was also in a car with California license plates. He voted against the PRO Act and COVID relief. #mtpol

Roger Marshall's argument for not raising the minimum wage is that he had a minimum wage job and it paid for his entire college tuition. When he graduated from Kansas State University, tuition was $898/year. It is now $10,000/year. The minimum wage then was $3.35. It's now $7.25

Put the minimum wage on the floor. Make anyone opposed have to vote against a very popular policy that every voter understands.

John Thune made the present-day equivalent of $50K a year flipping burgers but wants the people doing that now in the same state to make less than $19K, given the state's present minimum wage. You have an MBA. It is impossible you don't understand what inflation is.

I started working by bussing tables at the Star Family Restaurant for $1/hour & slowly moved up to cook – the big leagues for a kid like me– to earn $6/hour. Businesses in small towns survive on narrow margins. Mandating a $15 minimum wage would put many of them out of business.
