I lost my job, my 401(k) is in the toilet, and I can’t afford healthcare, groceries, and now gas. But at least the president doesn’t have an annoying laugh, because he never laughs.

The richest Americans saw their net worth soar 120% from 2017 to 2025.

The top 1% now control $55.8 trillion in assets β€” more than the G.D.P. of the United States and China combined.

Meanwhile, millions of Americans live paycheck to paycheck.

Still wondering if inequality is out of control?

In Reform UK we like to offer value for money, which is why we are spending all day on a gimmick intended to satisfy the people we care most about – the donors with links to fossil fuels and climate change denial who gave us Β£2.3m.

We have successfully bombed a school, gotten 7 soldiers killed, disrupted the world economy, and replaced an 86 year-old supreme leader with his much younger, more hardline son who is more committed to building nuclear weapons. Operation Middle East Wing is all but complete.
