No, seriously, Uber is deciding what driver gets what job based on their weight, whether they ever missed a payment, what political associations they have.

Algorithmic wage discrimination should be made illegal before it becomes the dominant business model.

I am a college professor, but I am going to resist the urge to suggest that what is now happening to college professors is more worthy of outrage than what happens to hundreds of other people in the US every day.

This is the US. This is what it is.

Biden is having his own Summer 2024 uprisings and he’s responding in the exact same way Trump did, when in all of 2020 he was blaming Trump, saying things would be different if he were president. Now there are student protesters getting beat up by police along with a genocide.

If the gov needs to raise taxes they should start with slashing QSBS . There are mega-wealthy realizing capital gains paying literally zero taxes on $10 million, and handing QSBS equity to children and family, who also get tax free gains.

Chevron paid attorney Randy Mastro millions to illegally detain me for 3 years and garnish my life savings after I helped Amazon communities win the $10b Ecuador pollution case. He's a modern-day gangster masquerading as a lawyer.

City council: vote him down.⬇️

NEW: Rents are up 20% since 2020. And a housing cartel's algorithm could be to blame.

RealPage, a software company, allegedly works with landlords to drive up rents across the country.

This is an illegal price-fixing conspiracy. And it's forcing Americans into homelessness.
