If Biden can pardon his son for 7 figure tax evasion, then Biden can also use his executive power to give everyone Medicare for All by citing PFAS exposure as an environmental hazard (codified in Sec. 1881A. of the Social Security Act)

Today I learned.... that breaks for meals or otherwise are not required at all by my state or the FLSA.
Saw a post earlier on another sub from a lady in KY asking about the legality of her job not offering any breaks at all for their eight-hour shifts. Comments said that in her state certain breaks were required. It got me curious and I searched for the law in my state. Michigan requires no breaks at all. Well, maybe they defer to the Federal standards then. Turns out the FLSA is silent on any kind of breaks for employees. Wow.

Corporate money in politics acts like a slush fund for politicians such as Harris, who spent more than $1 billion & still ran out of money. New Deal progressives don't take corporate money!

Those who risk it all to serve our country are more likely to be homeless. A despicable state of affairs that requires urgent action!

Neoliberals ignore the lived realities of working people! Low unemployment & higher GDP doesn't pay the bills in a cost of living crisis!

The 32 hour work week is just one of the taboos that make the establishment parties illegitimate and unrepresentative. Our ruling oligarchs/plutocrats/kleptocrats would sooner work people to death than let them be free, no matter how much technology advances or "the economy" grows.
We should have shortened the work week considerably when women entered the paid labor force, doubling the paid labor supply.
If Democrats had included this and other wildly popular and necessary proposals in their platform, maybe they wouldn't have wiped out so hard.
But such policies conflict with the oligarchic/plutocratic/kleptocratic desire for absolute control over the public and working class, so NO DICE!
