Life doesn't have to be high stakes, there is only artificial scarcity. We have the resources to take care of everyone on the planet and live in harmony with nature.

We can split the atom, put a super computer in every pocket and build a logistics system to air freight me a bowling ball over night from anywhere to my door if I pay enough.

The stars are ours as a species if we choose, but not this way.

Eat the rich.

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.
