Didn't he also scrap the $8 credit card fee or something like that. No more enforcement of exhoberent bank overdraft/Junk fees.. Scrap Medicaid negotiated pricing and the caps on those 10 drugs that were set to take effect for Big Pharma to keep prices high. Didn't he scrap Federal grants that supported employee transportation , I.E. use cars to get to work to help Big oil, and so on & so on.

One good thing could come out of this- the working class could band together against getting fucked by rich people and stop with the tribalism. Yes, I’m an optimist. It keeps me breathing.

Thanks for explaining derivatives in a way that I can understand. Now I get why all those cheats go rich on the housing crash in 2008.

Listening to DJT make promises is one thing. But actually believing him is insane. It's the old Lucy with football. His new nickname is Lucy.

Not concerning at all … sigh. Another great in-depth piece. So hard not getting defeated. I keep waiting for these Trump voters and non-voting enablers to feel the effects of what they did, but what if the economy or corps are too far gone by then?

I can’t drive at the moment and live in a rural area, where Dollar General serves as my only store within 15 miles, so not renewing my Amazon Prime was my latest protest. I only take one medication my doctor recently prescribed, which is just Pepcid essentially at strong dose, and I was ordering OTC kind through Amazon but thought I would just try the home delivery Rx through my Florida Blue. Logged in and it took me to … Amazon Pharmacy, the only Rx home delivery option. Cue Meg Tilly in Body Snatchers.
