@Kingfan5151 @briebriejoy Why would passing it in the house and not the senate hurt Dems? Wouldn't it show they're actually committed to the idea. Instead one random dem who previously voted yes tanks it and that's supposed to reflect better on the party. Wtf are you talking about?

@briebriejoy Leftists intentionally mislead people every day. If it passed today, it would’ve failed in the senate. Why would the Democrats intentionally vote for it to fail when they could’ve passed it knowing it’d fail in the Senate?!? What benefit? BLAME THE PARTY IN POWER FOR ONCE!!!!

@caitoz If you never criticized anyone but Israel for fighting back, it's anti-Semitic and I don't believe your apology.

@Anthonysmdoyle What you’re doing is engaging in the aiding and abetting of terrorism. The terrorists (who you support) are waging an information war, whereas misinformation and disinformation (which you spread) are their ammunition, and the people who spread it (you again) are the weapons. 🤷‍♂️

Let’s bet on America — not against it. I’m proposing a 10% fee on prediction markets and online gambling to fund an American Innovation Fund—investing in AI, quantum computing, fusion energy, life sciences, and national security tech. President Xi is investing in the future, whereas President Trump’s cuts in NIH and NSF is defaulting on America’s preeminence. That’s not how you win. Let’s fund cures, build new energy resources, lead in defense technologies and quantum tech. Stop falling further behind, start investing in winning again. That’s the American way. bloomberg.com/news/articles/…

Non-residents who spend millions of dollars on NYC apartments help drive NYC’s economy. Most of the profit in condominium development is in the penthouses. The Ken Griffins of the world make NYC high end development viable, driving high-paying construction, brokerage, legal, marketing, and other jobs in NYC. We should be applauding Ken for spending $238 million in NYC, not attacking him for doing so. Importantly, non-resident owners of NYC apartments who leave their apartments vacant for much of the year are not a burden to NYC schools, services, or other resources while they drive growth in retail sales, restaurants, theater, and other important drivers of our economy. They also often support NYC non-profits with donations. Ken’s company is a major employer in NYC of very high paying jobs which drive a considerable amount of our tax base. We wouldn’t want him to move even more employees to Miami. These non-resident owners also already pay a lot of taxes including mansion taxes, real estate taxes, sales taxes and more. While @NYCMayor Mamdani likes the tag line ‘Tax the rich.’ Unfortunately, his policies will harm the constituencies he is supposedly trying to help. I can’t imagine the NYC construction unions are excited about his plan.
Mayor Zohran Kwame Mamdani@NYCMayor

Happy Tax Day, New York. We’re taxing the rich.

@thearmytrucker @QueCharney01D @PoliceThePolic1 The guy was drunk as shit and could barely stand. There was no need to slam the shit out of him on his head like that. The cop was in zero danger. This guy was going nowhere. This is how you want police to act?

@unusual_whales Cuba is poorly run, many Cubans wish to be American. Also that land, natural precious resources could be used wisely by the United States. We need Cuba more than ever.

@dancingofpens @firstshowing It's looking like some of them are deciding to burn down their work places. Companies might want to rethink this shit before they set off a powder keg.

@firstshowing What are people supposed to do, though? Like, jobs wise. Things are so expensive and now there are massive layoffs just because companies aren't making enough money, jobs being replaced by AI etc... what are normal people meant to do?

🚨BREAKING: Two researchers from UPenn and Boston University just published a paper that should be uncomfortable reading for every CEO automating their workforce right now. The argument is straightforward. Every company replacing workers with AI is also eliminating its own future customers. Laid off workers stop spending. Enough of them stop spending and nobody can afford to buy anything. The companies that fired everyone end up selling into an economy with no purchasing power left. Every executive can see this. The math is not complicated. But here is why nobody stops. If you do not automate, your competitor does. They cut costs, lower prices, take your market share, and you collapse anyway. So every company automates knowing it is collectively destructive because the alternative is dying alone while everyone else survives. The researchers proved this is a Prisoner's Dilemma playing out in real time. The numbers are already moving. Block cut nearly half its 10,000 employees this year. Jack Dorsey said AI made those roles unnecessary and that within the next year the majority of companies will reach the same conclusion. Salesforce replaced 4,000 customer support agents with AI. Goldman Sachs deployed a coding tool that lets one engineer do the work of five. Over 100,000 tech workers were laid off in 2025 and AI was cited as the primary driver in more than half those cases. 80% of US workers hold jobs with tasks susceptible to AI automation. The researchers tested every proposed solution. Universal basic income does not change a single company's incentive to automate. Capital income taxes adjust profit levels but not the per-task decision to replace a human. Collective bargaining cannot hold because automating is always the dominant strategy. They also identified what they call a Red Queen effect. Better AI does not solve the problem, it accelerates it. Every company chases faster automation to gain market share over rivals but at the end everyone has automated equally, the gains cancel out, and the only thing left is more destroyed demand. The one thing the math says could work is a Pigouvian automation tax. A per-task charge that forces companies to account for the demand they destroy each time they replace a worker. The conclusion is that this is not a transfer of wealth from workers to owners. Both sides lose. Workers lose income. Companies lose customers. It is a deadweight loss with no market mechanism to stop it on its own.

I think the 40 hour work week was designed for people who had someone at home doing all the cooking, cleaning, and errands. Now we’re expected to do both and still have work life balance.
