And the answer from the vast majority of Americans: "no fuk'n way; I don't want any of this, and I won't let my children of family have any of this, if "those people" will also get this."

Referring to your response to rbreich.bsky.social , Yes. Did I misunderstand your response ?

Kill Citizens United and tax the stinking rich.

What are THINGS REPUBLICANS WILL NEVER work for. #Jeopardy. #VOTEBlue

Both AI and flying cars will kill more people than they will help. But hey! More money than brains leads to really stupid ideas.

Me, too. I generally will NOT do ANY biz w/ anyone I detest ( like HIM, the Waltons, Fuckerberg, Muskrat) but like you say, it's to OUR ADVANTAGE. Like using WalMart- why pay MORE for SAME STUFF? F IT! We'll NEVER be rid of them- too powerful, influential w/ pols.

Sorry to hear that. Recent family tragedy here- fall, surgery, rehab. Never know, eh? Take SO MUCH for GRANTED, don't we? Take care.

? re: Guaranteed healthcare Bernie's platform as candidate for POTUS was ... Single Payer National Healthcare inc. Dental & vision Is 'Medicare for all' as inclusive of ALL healthcare needs and is it FREE at point of service as Single Payer would be. ?

We have to keep on innovating, inventing, creating ideas to better human living conditions, create value , create jobs , products are wealth, distribute it fairly

Flying cars if legit are products , create jobs , wealth generating, once a niche market found , a free market to trade and with trade comes better living standards I suppose

Amen

Nationalise Starlink.

It’s wild that we’ve spent decades optimizing the latency of high-frequency trading but still haven't patched the basic bugs in the human social contract. We're running 2024 hardware on a 1776 OS.

These aren’t just benefits of prosperity; they’re how people gain enough security and bargaining power to shape the economy and the rules governing it.

Fuck AI

I am a little pissed we did not get our jetpacks. We could have had flying cars, jetpacks, clean air, water, food, good health and welfare for all. A democracy requires engagement and responsibility from the people.

We have become clever enough to build machines that imitate human intelligence, yet remain foolish enough to regard human dignity as an unaffordable luxury. A republic that can finance every technological marvel but cannot secure the basic welfare of its people has mistaken invention for progress.

Yep.

- the right to defend yourself - the right to say no to mandatory products and services and instead of saying free from gun violence let's just say free from violence period all forms - including government and corporate violence it's not hard and it sounds much better

Social Security Disability and SSI reform

It's not a flying car, it's a hollow shell. My brother made something like that almost 60 years ago. It "flew" on a string, but hell, he was only 11 years old.

Or billionaires.

So, big government controlling your money and health and no 2nd amendment to fight back. Got it.

We know that data centers will still expand dramatically across the US. Billionaires will get richer and richer. America will keep falling into the dump of history. And civilization with be extinct within 15 years. That's the positive side of the equation.

How about banning private equity investors from buying up homes and driving up rents!

Oh Marxist is a veerrrry broad term, if you were ever in that space, or adjacent..... I was about 40% serious in my guess about Bernies prior leanings.

Yeah? Then why does Bernie despise Democrats? He accomplished almost NOTHING in Congress. Passed one law, and named two post offices in 35 years. And he has despised Dems ever since JFK tried to take out a brutal Communist dictator named Fidel Castro. Dems are NOT Communists or Marxists.

Berniebros beat up Dems and help elect NAZIS. No thanks.

What we really need is for the Berniebro cult to stop helping to elect NAZIS.

Sounds like freedom!

When minimum wages were first enacted, it was designed as a low wage so businesses could bring in unskilled or teens and teach them job skills. When politicians listened to Communists like Reich, they SHIT on business, destroying high paying jobs and pretended to be the savior of workers.

You're Entirely Welcome! For your Image Collection...

@mizzwelch.bsky.social You need him on!

Use ai to cure cancer then shut it down.

It’s fairly simple.

A bit surprised free education didn't make the list, Professor.

I’m ok with technology progression…but not as a replacement for the basics.

We also need clean air, water and soil. Safe food. A livable climate. Affordable energy…

Also, everything from FDR's 2nd Bill of Rights. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Second_...

It’s not even a choice between all of that and flying cars or AI. It’s between all of that and the lies of a handful of flimflam men, burning down the planet, turning the economy into a house of cards and destroying democracy solely in pursuit of wealth beyond obscenity.

Thank you for continuing to speak out!

We honestly need a supermajority in the house and senate to raise minimum wage because with these 51/49 splits, there always seems to be at least one Fetterman, Sinema or Manchin. It’s embarrassing America is unable to do basic stuff Canada or France can do all the time! Minimum wage is basic stuff.

Truth!

All of this!

Yes ! We need peace and opportunity to be happy and prosperous! A living wage and healthcare is a good start ! #resist

Berniebros are not the brightest lightbulbs on the planet. They don't even know the real Bernie. Passed one law and named two post offices in 35 years in Congress. And his cohort, AOC, has passed ZERO laws in 8 years.

For our American neighbours: This is democratic socialism! It is also Kiefer Sutherland’s grandfather, who led Canada’s first socialist government: bsky.app/profile/ndp....

🤣

Are YOU a billionaire?

MAGA will frame this as "free handouts" but it's really a Return On Investment for our taxes paid which builds health and wealth for all.

You just described what most of Europe has had for a very long time 🤷‍♂️ crazy that any of that could be considered radical or ‘far left’

And this what your votes are for. Please copy and recirculate liberally if you approve of this sentiment!

None of your list is possible if legislation to stop Citizens United is not first on the list.

AMERICANS TOTALLY AGREE WITH YOU ROBERT REICH THAT WE NEED ALL OF THE ABOVE MENTIONED, INSTEAD OF FLYING CARS, AI OR GIANT DATA CENTERS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

AMEN!!!!!

We already have flying cars. They are called helicopters.

Thanks for saying it out loud Professor 🙏

A maga calls this woke. Dipshits

You forgot Privacy
