NBC News poll

Voters hold negative views of Al. In fact, the only topics less popular in the survey were the Democratic Party and Iran.

Truly a perfect news alert

This government is doing real and tangible harm to the people of this province. And they are doing it in a way that is nefarious, non-transparent, unfair, and undemocratic. Skirting on criminal, honestly. This is not what Nova Scotians voted for.

I woke up punchy. I’m so sick of these motherfuckers and their bombs and their rapes and their violence.

We could be happy. We could have nice things like healthcare and childcare and UBI. It actually wouldn’t be that hard.

Two #NovaScotia budget cut points on my mind today.

1. They are flooding the zone w/so many cuts, knowing they’ll not get them all, but they’ll get a ton through anyway.
2. It’s time to talk about a wealth tax.

You notice how quiet China has been?

That's because you never interfere with an enemy who is in the process of destroying himself.

What the New Wealth Tax in Massachusetts Is Paying For Massachusetts voters approved an additional tax on incomes of more than a million dollars. At least a billion extra dollars will support transportation and education projects this year.

Anyway, follow & read @timbousquet.bsky.social for the best coverage on this. Budgets ARE ideological artifacts. The Houston gov and their cronies are desperately afraid of taxing the rich but, guess what, it works. Just one example: www.governing.com/transportati...

It's Official: the Cybertruck is More Explosive than the Ford Pinto - FuelArc News We now have a full year of data for the Cybertruck, and a strange preponderance of headlines about Cybertrucks exploding into flames, including several fatalities. That’s more than enough data to comp...

The Ford Pinto had a death rate of 85 people for 10 million cars sold. The Cybertruck hasn't sold 10 million, but the fatality rate so far maths out to 1,452 people killed per 10 million sold.

The Cybertruck may be the deadliest road car, for the occupants, ever sold.

But WHERE is their plan to raise more revenue from extractive corporations and the wealthiest 10% among us? This was the plan all along, especially since the last election was called by Houston.

Which tells me it is not about actually creating a budget that serves the people of the province. It's a budget that is trying to further the project of concentrating power and wealth in the fewest number of hands as possible. #NovaScotia

Where is the movement to raise taxes on extractive corporations and the wealthiest people? Budget reporting seems to be all about cuts instead of strategically raising public funds for the public good. There are proven strategies out there for the picking.

I think these challenges can be navigated if approached in a collaborative way. Now, if we end up with #AMOC collapse sooner than later, all bets are off (on a number of fronts!).

This is so infuriating. They are essentially penalizing transit users (and deterring potential users) by raising fares & cutting service. How about more aggressive wealth taxes on individuals and corporations; a strategy which has worked a charm in other jurisdictions (despite the faux outrage).
