CEO-to-worker pay ratio in 1965: 20-1 CEO-to-worker pay ratio in 1990: 75-1 CEO-to-worker pay ratio today: 280-to-1 Trickle-down economics was always a sham. Nothing has ever trickled down.

A reminder that prices are actually down. At least, that's what Conservatives told us. #Econsky

This is a "could've seen it coming" kind of fact. A nature evolution of an information society where the workforce, as it trends more highly-educated/highly-skilled, becomes more collaborative and self-empowered, reducing the need for this front-line layer, or even Senior Manager layer. #Econsky

Conservatives are now starting to worry. What took them so long? #Econsky #Politisky tinyurl.com/4b9xvdk4

Meanwhile, Brian Kilmeade, who advocated killing all homeless people, still has a cushy Fox job.

Luckily, Sinclair has a helpful database of all their stations, so you can see if they're operating in your area and respond accordingly. sbgi.net/tv-stations/

Is this what Conservatives consider "winning?" #Politisky

Trumpkinomics Republicans have never been good for your pocketbook. #Econsky

Party over Nation it seems #Politisky

To blame liberals without having looked in the mirror. "Put your sword back in its place... for all who draw the sword will die by the sword" (Matt 26:52).

This is what happens when justice serves power instead of people. Banksy’s latest piece shows a judge beating a protester. They rushed to throw up barriers to hide it. We need this here because it looks a lot like our own Supreme Court vs. the people.

ALL THIS IN SPITE OF VACCINES KILLING TRILLIONS OF PEOPLE EVERY YEAR SINCE THE 1700S! 🙄 #Medsky

Nice set of polls from The Economist. Trump and his Republican cronies continue to sink. #Politisky tinyurl.com/5es6zmu8

I was never big on the idea of population for population's sake. 18th, 19th, and 20th Century economists might have been keen to leverage it for increased productivity. Now we can leverage tech to increase productivity, which might allow us to procreate for more satisfying reasons. #EconSky

Nietzsche argues Strauss's work, The Old Faith and the New, was popular because its cowardly platitudes acted as a mirror in which other Philistines of the day could see themselves reflected. It succeeded because it flattered instead of revealed. I see parallels in today's conservativism. #EduSky

Population precedes production. #EconSky

After seeing these two maps, I hypothesize that States which tend toward both lower unemployment rates and lower median household incomes are States in which we'd find a higher percentage of underemployment compared to other States. #EconSky

2012 would like its idea back. #Hyperloop #Musk #Oldybutgoody #Everythingoldisnewagain

Way back when, in an MBA-level Accounting Management class, we validated the hypothesis while participating in a national simulation of a shoe-making company, that buying back stock was great tool for enriching the company executives (as they owned vast amounts of stock). #EconSky

I thought it important enough to use AI to produce Washington's farewell address in abbreviated contemporary vernacular. I think it holds truths relevant for us today, especially sections 8-15. #FarewellAddress #GeorgeWashington #PoliticalParties #NationalUnity #WeThePeople #MorePartiesIfNotNone

Besides becoming the anti-freedom and pro-authoritarian party, the #GOP has finally made a 180 to become the pro-taxes party. #NYT #EconSky

I would deeply enjoy supervising a PhD thesis about this advertisement… please get in touch 😅 (Yes, it’s a real advertisement!)

Nothing new here. There's never been a time when this wasn't the case. Just because it's happening quicker, at a faster pace, doesn't make it different from what's happened before. The difference is in degree, not kind. Who says cave paintings weren't SHOWING? #econsky #jobsky #techsky

Carl Sagan explains how the ancient Greeks knew the Earth was round and calculated its circumference over 2,000 years ago.

Real discussion: CNN: Hey Dave it's CNN. Could you come on to talk about the death of Hulk Hogan Me: Hulk Hogan was a racist scab and a liar. He hated unions, Black people, and the truth and that's why he loved Donald Trump. What time do you want me? CNN: Great! Well.... so we'll keep looking

Trump's GOP savaged Biden and Harris for inflation, only to turn around and rend the separation of powers to implement inflationary practices that are leading to increased prices. #EconSky

Anyone from Iceland able to confirm the contents of this article? Sounds like a success. www.paris2018.com/news/2019-ic...

He -- along with Collins and Murkowski -- knew what they were doing. As do any Republican who voted against any bill, nominee, or resolution knowing it would pass anyway by tie or few votes. The GOP is destroying the United States.

"Michigan increasingly is represented by candidates who haven’t won more than 50% of voters’ support. #RankedChoiceVoting addresses that & makes sure voters are represented." – @patzabawa.bsky.social on @wdet.bsky.social discussing @rankmivote.bsky.social's push to get RCV on the ballot Listen ⬇️

Lenny Bronner and Andrew Van Dam made a point I've always reinforced. Read the WaPo article "Did Canada just change how we think of Trump’s 2024 election? (Perhaps Trump’s win wasn’t about Trump at all.)" #edusky #thefutureisliberal #magamind tinyurl.com/2kyjmcnv

Well they definitely get to say “I Voted for that”

Trump's approval ratings are as dismal as his first term, suggesting the world will be as shitty as it was the first time he cowed the GOP #ConfederateParty into wrecking the economy with their hate-spewed agenda. #econsky #politisky

A bunch of good people, indeed. #Jan6

Damn right!!!

Much as I would not dare to predict the consequences of this war, I do think we can summarize it thusly so far: A smart and evil man manipulated a stupid and evil man into a war against a fanatical and evil regime.

Send him to Guantanamo!
