The bill for the wage earners: $143 billion.” A first-of-its-kind analysis of newly disclosed Internal Revenue Service data shows that the richest 25 billionaires in the United States paid a true federal tax rate of just 3.4% between 2014 and 2018—even as they added a staggering $401 billion to their collective wealth.

Arms Sales: What We Know About Bombs Being Dropped in Our Name In this day and age where videos of U.S. allies committing war crimes are readily available on Twitter or Instagram, no one can claim that they don’t know what U.S.-made weapons are used for around the world. In this day and age where videos of U.S. allies committing war crimes are readily available on Twitter or Instagram, no one can claim that they don’t know what U.S.-madePentagon Papers Failed to Cure Servile Pro-War Media Fifty years ago, the New York Times began publishing excerpts from a massive secret report called the “History of U.S. Decision-Making Process on Vietnam Policy.” Those excerpts, which quickly became known as the “Pentagon Papers,” provided shocking revelations of perennial government deceit and spurred an epic clash over the First Amendment. Unfortunately, many of the media outlets that will celebrate the Pentagon Papers anniversary have long since become lap dogs of perfidious politicians dragging America into new foreign conflicts. The report that became the Pentagon Papers was a secret study begun in 1967 analyzing where the Vietnam War had gone awry. The 7,000-page tome showed that presidents and military leaders had been conning the American people on Southeast Asia ever since the Truman administration. Like many policy autopsies, the report was classified as secret and completely ignored by the White House and federal agencies that most needed to heed its lessons. New York Times editor Tom Wicker commented in 1971 that “the people who read these documents in the Times were the first to study them.” By James BovardDisaster Capitalism Global Covid-19 Pandemic is Profitable!: Patent Monopolies and Inequality In recent weeks there have been several articles noting the enormous wealth that a small number of people have made off of the vaccines and treatments developed to control the pandemic. Many see this as an unfortunate outcome of our efforts to contain the pandemic. In that view, containing the pandemic is an immensely important goal, if some people get incredibly rich as result, it’s a price well worth paying. After all, maybe we can even tax back some of their wealth after the fact. By Dean Baker
The past few weeks, there have beenover 500 Covid Prevtable Death Per Day is Acceptable to the Mass Media. The poor and the uninsured are dying because because the US has no public healthcare! U.S. Critical Care Doctors: COVID Treatment Guidelines Are A Crime Against Humanity, Follow The Science, Systematically Deploy Ivermectin Now Majority of Deaths Unnecessary, Systemic Medical Malpractice Due to Obscene Corruption, Censorship of Doctors & Non-Patented Treatments This interview with Dr. Pierre Kory does an excellent job of laying out many key points that we’ve been reporting on over the past year. He speaks in very clear terms accurately. I spent valuable time editing this 3-hour interview down to 50-minutes here because it is absolutely critical for people to understand all the issues that are discussed. Dr. Kory is part of a nationwide U.S. group of COVID Critical Care doctors who have treated and cured thousands of COVID-infected patients with Ivermectin-based treatment protocols. Dr. Kory has testified twice in Senate Homeland Security hearings on COVID treatments, and is recognized for his work innovating COVID standard of care. He, along with his colleagues at the FLCCC, and many of the most respected doctor groups around the world have been presenting overwhelming evidence proving the safety and efficacy of Ivermectin, and well over one million COVID-infected people have been cured with it. They discuss the strategic targeted censorship of effective non-patented treatments and doctors worldwide, and the absurdly corrupted Emergency Use Authorization process – including the long-term risks of the experimental mRNA injections, the obscene medical malpractice of insisting everyone take the shot, and how Ivermectin is significantly safer and more effective in preventing the spread.

Environment:
Policing and Militarism Go Hand in Hand. We Must Abolish Both. Policing and militarism are a two-headed monster that protects and upholds the foundation upon which racial capitalism was built — exploitation of the lives of poor Black and Brown people. Although much attention has been placed on recent expansions of police militarization, these threads have long been intertwined. For Black Americans, police have always acted as an occupying force within our communities. But during the 1960s, a decade of unprecedented Black radical resistance, the lines between police and military and national defense became even more blurred. By Destiny Harris

Covid Variant Chaos in the UK The UK has a “roadmap” for lifting its Covid lockdowns and restrictions. These were eased in parts of Scotland on Saturday 5 June; in Wales on Monday 7 June; in England, the final stage in the roadmap for lifting its lockdown is due no earlier than 21 June (though the spread of the Delta/Indian variant in parts of England is causing the government to consider revising its plans); and in Northern Ireland, the next review is due on Thursday 10 June.

The government of the United States can pass laws in a few days to spend tens of trillions of dollars for war and the bailout of Wall Street and the bankers. Yet, those who pass universal healthcare for themselves, but cannot spend even one trillion dollars for universal health for those who are ‘governed’! This is what is considered, by the powers to be, a democracy and part of the democratic way. — Roland Sheppard, Let the People Vote on Healthcare!
U.S. Crumbling Infrastructure Biden’s Bipartisan Budget Proposal is $5 Trillion Below What is Needed
Due to Over Fifty Years Oo Deferred Maintenance, The Coast to Repair the United States Infrastructure is $6Tiillion — Biden’s Bipartisan Budget Proposal is $5 Trillion Below What is Needed!
Deferred maintenance is the practice of postponing maintenance activities such as repairs on both real property (i.e. I e) and personal property (i.e. machinery) in order to save costs, meet budget funding levels, or realign available budget monies. The failure to perform needed repairs could lead to asset deterioration and ultimately asset impairment.)
The need for such a bank was underscored yet again when the American Society of Civil Engineers issued its quadrennial Report Card for the United States and graded the nation’s overall infrastructure as a C-. ASCE estimated that the gap between what is currently funded and what is needed over the next 10 years has grown to $2.6 trillion. The country needs to spend nearly $6 trillion to bring the infrastructure to a state of good repair. Highlights of the Report Card include:
-
Growing wear and tear on the nation’s roads have left 43 percent of public roadways in poor or mediocre condition, a number that has remained stagnant over the past several years.
-
Currently, 42 percent of all bridges are at least 50-years old, and 46,154 are considered structurally deficient, meaning they are in “poor” condition, but still in use and waiting to collapse.
Biden’s proposed ‘bipartisan’ whittled down his infrastructure budget is $1 Trillion. It will hardly do anything. And differed maintenance will continue to corrode the infrastructure.
To Make Matters worse the current proposal is to make the people pay for the insufficient repairs caused by capitalism’s deferred maintenance policy!
Who is forced to pay is a clear example that the government of the United States is of the republicrate representatives, by, and for the 1%, a Capitalist Government! What we need is a government of , by, and for the 99%, a Workers Government! To begin this process we need to organize a political organziation, in opposition to the 1% that is of, by, and for the 99%, a mass Workers and or Socialist Party!
