St. Luigi and Jury Nullification

WORKING HARD ENOUGH = 1 JOB WORKING FULL TIME ENOUGH@CheyenneHuntCA Our American Dream was sold to the highest bidder and instead of facing that painful and terrifying betrayal head on, we blame it on the most disadvantaged among us for not “working hard enough”. Full time is supposed to mean the full amount of time a human being is meant to work before it becomes inhumane. Working full time in any role should be enough to pay your bills because all labor is dignified.

ROBOTS WON’T REPLACE CONSTRUCTION JOBS
CA FIRES BURNED DOWN SO MANY HOUSES THAT WILL NEED REPAIR OR be REBUILT. All the construction jobs involved will need people to do it.

WEF’s Future of Jobs Report 2025: 86% of companies expect AI to transform business by 2030. Fastest-growing jobs include Big Data, FinTech, and AI/ML roles, while clerical jobs like cashiers and data entry clerks decline. Digital access drives the shift.

BREAKING: Congressman Buddy Carter just dropped a bill to abolish the IRS and nuke income, payroll, estate, and gift taxes. Translation: a billionaire free-for-all while the rest of us scramble to fund schools, roads, and hospitals. Who knew ‘tax reform’ was code for ‘let the rich run wild’?

OPINION Taxes such as income tax, property tax, gift tax, estate tax, and sales tax are relatively modern inventions that arose as the government expanded its reach. These forms of taxation were never part of the Founders’ original intent, as they sought to limit centralized power and avoid the oppressive taxation they had experienced under British rule.

COUNTER
Well …. they put a tax on liquor and started a rebellion because the people who made liquor used the liquor to barter for goods and services and didn’t have any money to pay the taxes. And one of the reasons for the revolutionary war was the British tax on (Liquor).

Whiskey Rebellion the tax protest in the United States from 1791 to 1794
In 1791, Congress approved a new, federal tax on spirits and the stills that produced them. For farmers on the frontier of the new nation, the production of whiskey was an important method of converting large amounts of grain into liquor, which was easier to transport across the Appalachian Mountains for sale in eastern markets.

1791 Excise Tax
“Section 15. And be it further enacted, that upon all spirits which after the said last day of June next, shall be distilled within the United States, from any article of the growth or produce of the United States, in any city, town, or village, there shall be paid for their use the duties following…”

We should abolish taxes on wages and earned income. Taxes should only be collected on *passive* income like rent, interest, capital gains, etc. Most low-wage earners get all their income from wages whereas the elites get all theirs from passive income.

Big Tech and Toxic Masculinity

When wealth is passed off as merit, bad luck is seen as bad character.
This is how ideologues justify punishing the sick and the poor. But poverty is neither a crime nor a character flaw. Stigmatize those who let people die, not those who struggle to live.” — Sarah Kendzior

Walmart, $WMT, CEO Doug McMillon has said that grocery prices will continue to rise in 2025.
Of note, his compensation was $26.9 million, a 6% increase from the previous year.

New: The right-wing Supreme Court majority is now looking to potentially overturn the Affordable Care Act’s policy that makes cancer screenings, heart statins, and HIV prevention free.

Why this longtime Aspen ski executive thinks corporate sustainability is a scam

JPMorgan Chase CEO Jamie Dimon says Bitcoin is “a Ponzi scheme” that “has no intrinsic value.” January 13, 2025

Jamie Dimon goes on @60Minutes yesterday and claims Bitcoin has no intrinsic value. 60 Minutes also did the hit piece on brad garlinghouse while their parent company uses JPM Payments to make cross-border transactions. Paramount, who owns 60min, transacts Real Time Payments (RTPs) across borders using J.P. Morgan Payments.

Jamie has crashed BTC many times in the past cause can’t wait to buy more #BTC when donOLD gets into office and the BTC reserve starts to happen.

JPM banked FTX, Epstein, Diddy, Deel Platform (who has an open RICO case), and were with Ethereum from the very start. That says everything I need to know about JPM.

Meanwhile…. The SEC filing by JPMorgan Chase provides specific insights into the bank’s exposure to spot Bitcoin ETFs. The bank currently has exposure to spot Bitcoin ETFs issued by some of the largest asset managers in the world: BlackRock, Fidelity, Grayscale, and more.

JPMorgan Chase was involved in the Bernie Madoff Ponzi scheme in several ways:
• Failed to report suspicious activity: JPMorgan Chase agreed to a $2.6 billion settlement with the U.S. government for failing to reFX)rt suspicious activity in Madoffs accounts.
• Paid civil asset forfeiture judgment: JPMorgan Chase paid a $1.7 billion civil asset forfeiture judgment to the U.S. Department of Justice. This was the largest forfeiture by a bank in the U.S. at the time.
• Covered up the scheme: JPMorgan Chase admitted to covering up the Madoff

Dimon is the only Wall Street megabank CEO to have remained in that post since the financial crisis of 2008 – notwithstanding his bank losing $6.2 billion gambling with depositors’ money in derivatives in London; despite five felony counts to which it admitted guilt; despite over $40 billion in fines and restitution for looting the public and rigging trading; despite years of providing banking services to two of the most notorious criminals of this century – Bernie Madoff and Jeffrey Epstein – and despite endless bailouts from the Federal Reserve to prop it up.

Texas Governor Greg Abbott has ordered all Texas flags to be flown at full-staff on inauguration day, despite the requirement that they be flown at half-staff for 30 days due to President Carter’s death. Shameful.

A telling signal that some usually wealthy male YouTube influencers
or Big Tech CEOs appear to have been seduced by the Dark Side is when
they attempt to compensate for their “shortcomings” by displaying the
toxic masculinity of challenging each other to physical altercations
such as boxing or wrestling. I’m one guy who has been noticing this
for years now, and I’m certain I’m not the only one. -Lauren Weinstein

Elon Musk has had a lot to say about the grooming gangs scandal. We looked at 24 hours on Musk’s X timeline and found a range of false and misleading information being amplified. Produced by Catherine Karelli, Shayan Sardarizadeh and Jake Horton. Graphics by Jacqueline Galvin. Well Elon should know. His own father was a child groomer of his own step-daughter!
