People are homeless because of capitalism. People are dying from a lack of healthcare because of capitalism. People are overworked, underpaid & unhappy because of capitalism. Capitalism was not designed for the betterment of society. It was designed to enrich the ruling class.

Because Florida has a massive labor shortage they decided kids can work! A bill passed in Florida that will allow children ages 14-15 to work over night and on weekends up to 30 hours a week and now they want to pass another bill so they can pay them less than minimum wage!

UnitedHealth reported $6.29B in profit for Q1, and blamed actually having to provide healthcare to their customers for not making more.

Reminder that health insurance companies are most profitable when they’re letting the most customers die, or driving them into debt. pic.twitter.com/i3PdaVHRmN

ICE can enter anyone’s home, and abduct and deport them to a foreign prison indefinitely because the DOJ says they can ignore the 4th, 5th and 15th amendments. If there’s no due process or protections against illegal search and seizures, none of us are safe.

BREAKING NEWS: In a shocking clip, DHS officers are shown arresting an accused undocumented immigrant while wearing no uniforms, no exposed badges, and refusing to show a warrant. This is not the America we should be.

Words matter. The Trump regime did not “deport” a 2-year-old U.S. Citizen of Latino ethnicity—the Trump regime knowingly *Human Trafficked* a 2-year-old U.S. Citizen of Latino ethnicity.

That isn’t just a violation of the Constitution—it’s a violation of int’l human rights law.
