idk why you are getting downvoted. Biden has done absolutely nothing to curb american fascism. more cops. He gave that weird anti-fascism speech last september and followed it up with exactly nothing structural. No election day holiday exec order, no universal mail in voting. No greedflation profit confiscation, price controls, cut pandemic medicaid, grew child poverty by 50%c blah blah. Our center-right neoliberal and far right fash parties are closer than they are apart, but we can't have that conversation as a country.

Aggressive price controls work. Profit forfeitures work. Generous universal social programs work. But no, Joe wants to use the defense production act instead to make meds. Neoliberalism is accelerating fascism and autocracy.

I preordered on announcement day, I expect it'll arrive December. I am excited for it to replace my 12" iPad pro. The 3:2 screen is perfect for reading and office app work.

OASDI is the program name for social security. It stands for Old Age, Survivors Disability Insurance https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Social_Security_(United_States)

There must be an advocation for a universal monthly social security payment (and expanded universal medicaid) from birth. Fund them in the short term by eliminating the taxable income cap for OASDI.

If we were in a functioning society that responded to actual issues... Gotta finish the civil war first tho.
