We're now in the 27th consecutive month of unemployment below 4%. We haven't seen this since the 1960s. This is what can happen when you fight back against trickle-down economic nonsense and invest in American workers.

@rbreich The 60's. Back when the baby boom was still in school--consumers.
Unemployment went up when they needed jobs.

From 1978 to 2022, CEO pay grew by 1,209% while the typical worker's pay rose just 15%.

This explosion in CEO pay relative to the pay of average workers isn’t because CEOs have become so much more valuable than before.

They've just gamed the system to line their pockets.

@rbreich Excess at the top, excess homelessness at the bottom.
