Linda McMahon is the poster child of oligarchy. A billionaire so obsessed with power she tried (and failed) to buy a Senate seat, and when that didn't work, bought positions in both Trump administrations. Because it's much cheaper to buy another billionaire than the people.

The average New York family would have to make $334,000 a year to afford childcare care for a two year old in New York City. 4x the median family income. The equivalent of 10 minimum wage jobs. Tax the rich to fund universal childcare.
