Folks should be honest & say they’re ok giving billions of tax $ away to the already-wealthy while leaving working class families to starve & lose their homes, b/c the lives of the wealthy matter while the lives of the poor don’t. But don’t lie & say it makes economic sense.

How did giving millions to Joel Olsteen help the economy? It didn’t. The economy is about to crash, b/c instead of doing what we all know needs to be done, the wealthy & their paid politicians made another run on our tax $ while tossing the taxpayer crumbs https://twitter.com/BreeNewsome/status/1339709767447658496

And it’s not that people in power are unaware that we’re heading off an economic cliff going into 2021, it’s that they don’t care. They don’t care b/c they’ll have vaccine access, housing & all the $ they need. And they’ll use police & teargas to keep a handle on the rest.

People work hard, barely earning enough to get by. The government takes from those earnings & gives it to the wealthy. Then when those people can’t make rent, the government uses that same tax $ they took & sends the police to remove people from their homes.

Folk like Osteen got $millions they don’t need while avg family now owes thousands in back rent & *maybe* might get $600. That is nothing but a violent, greedy money grab by the rich & powerful. They’ve turned a pandemic into another profit making scheme while millions go hungry.
