I got a $35 overdraft fee on a $1.21 transaction while a paycheck was clearing once and rather than a "poverty tax" I would characterize it as a forced million percent APR loan.

Overdraft fees are a poverty tax. Abolish them.

This argument would be a HELL of a lot more compelling if this same court had not just months ago upheld the right of multinational corporations to enslave children

Blacks as non-humans was "settled law" too ... buy Democrats .... if you were not taught such "in gov school". You want people dead by chemical WMDs (fentanyl); dead by bio WMDs (injections); and dead by elective abortion. Such a sweet little cuck ... huh? twitter.com/aronberg/statu…

But his girlfriend had to set up an elaborate sting operation to nail the doc at all, whereas if he did that shit today she would just get arrested for baby murder at the ER and he'd be off the hook on both counts, prob solved.

Hoy es dia de fiesta para el pueblo. Que festeje la primera victoria popular. Que tantos sufrimientos se amortiguen en la alegria que hoy inunda el corazon de la Patria. Esta victoria para Dios y para el Pueblo y su historia. Hoy es el dia de las calles y las plazas.

I've harped a lot on Abbott's choice to spend $15 billion on buybacks & dividends instead of fixing the malfunctioning baby formula drying equipment that tainted Similac in 2019 I now see that was myopic Probably should have fixed the leaky roof first! FDA saw this one coming

But 4 years ago Kimberly Clark, whose Kotex has 20% tampon share, fired 5500 workers bc "pricing pressure" had limited its 2017 op profit to just $3.3B (K-C's 19% op margin=2x S&P 500 avg) No pricing complaints in their last earnings call, though...
