if we had closed borders to the degree youre talking YOU wouldn't be here..the country is a fucking nation of immigrants... hell they put in their brand for the country:
they said that when MILLIONS of EUROPEAN immigrants flooded the shores (legally and otherwise) and when that was happening you know what blacks were saying??
"Cast Down Your Buckets"
Booker T. Washington calls for industrial employers to hire AMERICAN blacks over the immigrants filling the shores from Europe in 1895.
HOW DID THAT WORK OUT FOR THE BLACK AMERICANS THEN??? Do you think it was right then???
if illegals are treated better than blacks what does that say about AMERICAN SOCIETY as a whole?? Any American employer willing to hire illegal immigrants over americans says more about that employer than it does about any political party.
The United States established diplomatic relations with Ukraine in 1991, following its independence from the Soviet Union. The United States attaches great importance to the success of Ukraine’s transition to a modern democratic state with a flourishing market economy. U.S. policy is centered on realizing and strengthening a democratic, prosperous, and secure Ukraine more closely integrated into Europe and Euro-Atlantic structures.
The US industrial military complex has always printed money. We were damn near 20 years in on Iraq and and Afghanistan before conservatives FINALLY started talking about shutting it down. Am I happy about the Ukraine-Russia war NO...but if they got enough money for that then they got enough money for student loan forgiveness and reparations right?? I'm sure you as a black man YOU would AGREE on both those points...RIGHT??
The underlying problem is not inflation. It’s corporate power. The entire American economy is concentrated into the hands of a few greedy, corporate giants with the power to raise prices.
Only a few entities have access to the land and pipelines that control the oil and gas powering most of the world.
They took a hit during the pandemic as most people stayed home. But they are more than making up for it now, limiting supply and ratcheting up prices. Warren: “Chevron, Exxon have doubled their profits.
This isn’t about inflation. This is about price gouging.”
Or look at consumer goods. In April 2021, Procter & Gamble raised prices on staples like diapers and toilet paper, citing increased costs in raw materials and transportation. But P&G has been making huge profits.
After some of its price increases went into effect, it reported an almost 25% profit margin. Looking to buy your diapers elsewhere? Good luck.
The market is dominated by P&G and Kimberly-Clark, which—NOT entirely coincidentally—raised its prices at the same time. Another example: in April 2021, PepsiCo raised prices, blaming higher costs for ingredients, freight, and labor. It then recorded $3 billion in operating profits through September. How did it get away with this without losing customers? Pepsi has only one major competitor, Coca-Cola, which promptly raised its own prices. Coca-Cola recorded $10 billion in revenues in the third quarter of 2021, up 16% from the previous year.
Food prices are soaring, but half of that is from meat, which costs 15% more than last year. There are only four major meat processing companies in America, which are all raising their prices and enjoying record profits. Get the picture?
Harris talks about price gouging....whats trump's (capitalist king) take on corporations making record profits by artificially inflating goods and services??
BUBBLES, BUBBLES. BUBBLES....they seem to pop when republicans are in office....
are you fucking kidding?? Biden dropped out because of media and party pressure.. his debate performance was so bad he made 78 year old trump look like he had some sense. Thats why he's not in the race..and since he's dropped donny is the OLD MAN in the race..thats just reality.
