Once again, I just want to say that lavish gifts to Supreme Court justices shouldn’t just be “disclosed.” They should be banned, outright. This should not be a radical position.

The US Military had a limit of $20 total value of gifts from working associates. The SCOTUS has no limits, I guess. Makes sense because soldiers were protecting us from falling into a fascist state and billionaires are for protecting people who would make them more $billions.

Seems to me, record profits really makes investors happy. But obscene record profits makes investors more happier and customers rather dismayed.

The FTC alleges that a major US oil exec colluded with OPEC to cut production and drive up prices.

Research found that Big Oil price fixing may have contributed to 27% of total inflation in 2021.

When I say corporate greed is driving inflation, this is what I mean.
