Biden Meets the Press [Updated]

He better hope so.

No ... just a matter of time before he is either convinced to resign/retire "for health reasons," or the 25th Amendment will be used to elevate Harris. Her pick for VP is stated to likely be Pelosi; but I think it will be Cory Booker.

Yes, we need to wake up and understand we are running out of cheap oil and natural gas, we need to reduce CO2 pollution annually by over seven percent by 2030 or we will face the end of industrial civilization or worse.

The problem is not Biden. We live in a dynastic oligarchy made up of some 47 super rich kings and some 130 billionaire princes who rule for the most part and own the main stream news media.
The richest one tenth of one percent of Americans own 17% of stocks
The richest 1% own 50% of stocks
The bottom 50% own 0.7% of stocks
From 1979 to 2019:
• wages for the top 0.1% grew more than twice as fastThe top 1.0% saw their wages grow by 160.3%; and
• In contrast, those in the bottom 90% had annual wages grow by 26.0% .


If worker compensation had kept up with productivity gains since 1968, the current minimum wage would be more than $24.00 an hour.

CW3 Dick McManus - Sorry Chief; but CO2 being a pollutant is a fallacy. CO2 feeds all plants/trees that are green and in turn, they produce O2. CO2 is identified as "carbon" for no other reason that to implement a Carbon Tax. Meanwhile, Carbon DIOXIDE levels from autos have dropped immensely - at least in the U.S. The biggest pollution making country does NOTHING to mitigate their CO output (China), and India isn't far behind.
I do agree with wages for top tier executives, professors, Deans, and others being outrageous. However, if minimum wage were 24%, you would see serious automation, just as is occurring in states where the state mandated wage is $15/hr. Automation is replacing what used to be considered ENTRY level jobs - resume building jobs to illustrate a person's dependability, etc. Where automation doesn't happen, prices will go up - way up.

SSG Bill McCoy - I disagree with you about CO2. It is a serious threat.
The bottom line, we live in a dynastic oligarchy made up of some 47 super rich kings and some 130 billionaire princes who rule for the most part and own the main stream news media.
I disagree with your assumption that automation is a problem.
We are presently in a new Great Depression and we MAY not ever return to an economy were unemployment was as low as it was for the previous four years before the Covid pandemic. We are facing a future that looks to me as being nothing but doom and gloom because of the likely end to cheap oil and natural gas and over population.
