A metaphor for the extractive economy: capitalism drains local resources. PROUT proposes that communities reclaim control of their natural wealth. True development must be local and sovereign. No more looting disguised as "progress."

We must stop placing the burden on individuals and start holding corporations accountable.

Who pays for war? Not the 100 profiteers watching their dividends rise. It's you. It's me. It's the 4.5 billion humans watching their daily lives collapse. Why do we accept that a few profit from everyone's misery? simple: because we didn't know. Now we know. #Hormuz4.5B #EconomicJustice

Trump’s budget pushes to cut energy aid for 6M low-income households/reduce food assistance for millions—while proposing a $1.5T Pentagon budget. We need policies that protect the most vulnerable. Not policies that harm or oppress them. #LIHEAP #SNAP #EconomicJustice #PolicyPriorities #TrumpSucks

In socialist systems, the wealth generated by labor is distributed among workers rather than being hoarded at the top. This means better wages, job security, and benefits for everyone!

Socialism isn't just a utopian dream. It's about ensuring every worker gets paid fairly and has access to healthcare, education, and more. #WorkerPower

Income is even more skewed for some women when looked at intersectionally. #EqualPayDay2026, #AANHPI, #EconomicJustice, #MCNOW, #Feminism

Meet Morris, an NYC millionaire who thinks taxing him more is just fair - he'd barely notice the difference, but it would make a huge impact on millions of others in need.

Amended SB16 would cap child-support withholding at 35% for lower-income obligors; sponsors dispute large fiscal note Ian Miller, legislative aide for Sen. Sydnor, told the committee SB16 (as amended) caps child-support withholding at 35% for those earning under $40,000 and delays implementation to 2028; members questioned drafting errors (25% vs 35%), whether 'disposable earnings' or 'individual income' governs eligibility, and a $3.9 million fiscal note tied to staffing that sponsors disputed.

Senate Bill 16 aims to cap child support withholding at 35% for low-income parents, but critics are raising eyebrows over drafting errors and a disputed fiscal note.
