They created AI for profit. Corporations never voluntarily cut their own profits. They won't do it now.

It is a travesty that, while so many in NYC remain unhoused and its Mayor bullies them into obscurity, THIS is how the city enforces "affordable housing" policies.
The "Brooklyn Tower"—AKA the Eye of Sauron— has unveiled its state-mandated "affordable" apartments.
And you won't believe how "affordable" they are!
You should "click" to find out!

Extremists of the @TNHouseReps tried to silence a Black voice that spoke for all BIPOC threatened by the unregulated proliferation of weapons.
They failed. Make a beautiful noise.
"The message for all the people in Nashville who decided to expel us: You can't expel hope. You can't expel justice. You can't expel our voice. And you sure can't expel our fight," @Justinjpearson said after being reappointed. "Let's get back to work." commondreams.org/news/reappo…

The doors were locked.
The teachers were armed.
TN expanded firearm access.
The police arrived in minutes.
Covenant school had everything that MAGA GOP assured us prevents & stops mass shootings. And 3 babies & 3 adults were murdered in seconds.😳

THIS: "Economic success" shouldn't be defined as rich people getting richer.
Instead of looking at the stock market or the GDP to measure the health of the economy, we need to look at who owns what.
Over the last forty years, wealth has concentrated more and more at the very top.
"Economic success" shouldn't be defined as rich people getting richer.

Norfolk Southern attempted to dump its toxic spills in Wayne County, Michigan. The State had to stop it.
They made billions, refused to staff trains, lobbied to kill safety measures, violated safety rules, and tried to saddle the public with this mess.

Great question.
BREAKING: The @EPA claim that water in Ohio is "safe" to drink is based on only a few tainted lab samples funded by the very rail company that caused the disaster. The EPA apparently never tested the water.
Why does the polluter get to do the testing? ⬇️
