Pandemic Will Accelerate Automation

As the infected workspace poses increased risk to humans, capital will ramp up efforts to make labor obsolete

The latest wheel with the hole was dynamite, especially the center. With less than a quarter left, its hard to just make one then two and splurging three. Happy birthday Mrs. Mattie Crenshaw, you are the best!

Revelation

America's representatives in Washington are not much like America. Lawmakers make at least $174,000 a year and get health insurance courtesy of taxpayers. They're far wealthier than most people and tend to have loftier educations.

In Plain Sight

Former Vice President Joe Biden, the presumptive Democratic presidential nominee, said Ahmaud Arbery had essentially been “lynched before our very eyes.” Will Black folks ever be free! Chullins’ we ain’t there yet!

U.S. Decline

More than 1.3 million people have tested positive for the coronavirus in the United States, with at least 80,600 deaths and counting, the highest numbers in the world and much higher than countries that implemented widespread testing early in the pandemic. Need another reason to vote or why voting is important.
