@BarackObama: At a time when voting rights are being rolled back, the Freedom to Vote Act would strengthen our democracy and give more Americans a voice. That’s why the Senate should do the right thing and protect what so many generations fought so hard to secure.

@scottsantens: Why offer higher wages when you can get more child labor?This seems like an appropriate time to once again remind everyone that our economy runs on fear, and that there’s a much better way of running things.

@scottsantens: Scaring people into fearing hyperinflation is a great way to pump your Bitcoin bag.Higher inflation is temporary, and if you want to reduce it faster, then talk about actual ways of doing that like improving supply chains and doing more automation.

@katestarbird: “… FB research … in 2019 … found that misinformation shared by politicians was more damaging than that coming from ordinary users. Yet the company maintained a policy that year that explicitly allowed political leaders to lie without facing the possibility of fact checks.”

@scottsantens: Basic income is money, but it’s so much more than money. It’s what that money enables, and the security in knowing it will always be there, especially when the lack of money is preventing you from your goals, and the fears born from insecurity are preventing you from even trying.

@scottsantens: One thing I’d add to this analysis by @MattBruenig is to emphasize just how important it is to enable parents the option to care for their own kids. That reduces demand for paid care, lowering prices for everyone. CTC helps with this. UBI would even more.
