    AND increased spending on the social safety net

    You mean that thing real societies have because they’re societies that take care of one another and not a bunch of disposable, capital battery rugged individuals competing against one another for oligarch scraps?

    Man, for profit media is a hell of an Orwellian nightmare. Imagine being upset about being taxed so that if something catastrophic happens in your life you don’t end up in a cardboard box under a freeway dying of exposure.

    Fucking surreal. Why be society when we can be a bunch of temporarily embarrassed millionaires?
