Amazon cut 30,000 jobs & got a $7.8 billion tax break Meta cut 8,000 jobs & got an $8 billion tax break PayPal cut 4,800 jobs & paid $0 in federal income taxes Disney cut 1,000 jobs & paid $0 in federal income taxes Corporate tax breaks don't create jobs. They enrich the 1%.





Every now and then I remember Tim Walz’s “they’re weird” campaign and how close the dems were to actually shifting the way people perceive the right in a very real way and then they just…stopped




AG Merrick Garland, March 7, 2023: "Our complaint alleges that JetBlue’s proposed $3.8 billion acquisition of Spirit violate Section 7 of the Clayton Act. We allege that if allowed to proceed this merger will limit choices and drive up ticket prices for passengers across the country. "And we further allege that the impact of this merger will be particularly harmful for travelers who rely on what are known as ultra low cost carriers in order to fly. Those include working & middle-class Americans who traveled for personal as opposed to business reasons & who must pay their own way. By acquiring Spirit JetBlue will eliminate the largest ultra low cost carrier in the United States.”





A key to understanding Leftists is the massive disparity between Leftist intent and Leftist outcomes. Big Chief Lizzie Warren and Pete Boot-edge-edge proudly killed the Spirit/JetBlue merger, with the stated intent of maintaining consumer choice and holding down the cost of airline tickets. As a direct result, now Spirit is dead, consumers have fewer choices, prices are higher than ever and ~14,000 people are without jobs. Leftists base their actions on intent, because intent feels good emotionally. Conservatives base their actions on outcomes, because outcomes are a logical basis for decision making. Logic > emotion. We are not the same.
