      @@WealthyPanda I don’t mean that a single email is going to cause a politician to change their mind, but every elected official has staff whose job it is to read emails & brief their boss on the trends. If you believe your vote has an impact, then, mathematically, your email has ten times the impact of a vote because the number of constituents who write emails is ten times smaller than the number who vote in elections. That’s also why people who vote in primaries have more impact than people who vote in general elections.

      100% guarantee she'll get rid of her. The only reason Biden appointed her in the first place was because Bernie Sanders and Elizabeth Warren had leverage over him in 2020 to get their endorsements. Harris didn't have to go through a primary against progressives to get their approval. Everyone seems to assume she's to the left of Biden just because she's black or younger or a woman. The fact is she's a corporate centrist just like Biden and if she doesn't have the right pressures on her pushing her one way or the other, she won't go that way. Lina will be gone by January to appease Kamala's donors. Guarantee it.

I recently had to waste about 10 hours calling and emailing T-Mobile for a $5.33 refund they owed me because a feature didn't turn on when I went to Mexico. The gladly canceled my service and number after the first time I called and THEN they were not able to issue the refund because of a bunch of system crap. About five weeks into this, I emailed the CEO and on the same day I received an email and phone call that they would send me a Visa in the mail for the amount and they apologized A LOT.

    It was refreshing to agree with so many of her statements. To avoid stepping on the toes of state's rights, maybe an antitrust investigation into interstate self-dealing could be considered.
    If a company like Amazon evades fees and taxes by operating domestic and international logistics for their own products at a better rate and performance than third parties, for example.
    Perhaps an investigation into ISP and wireless carrier agreements to avoid each other, in order to provide fewer or no alternatives, so they can inflate rates in a vacuum of competition?
    That could run tandem with work the FCC is hopefully doing, sharing the load of what is one of the most well-known anti-competitive and anti-consumer oligopolies harming Americans.

    As a longtime fan, glad you're back it and still doing good work- though cheesier than my wife prefers. I've always appreciated the research you do.
    Please research and investigate the on-going situation with GameStop. That situation desperately needs a good storyteller such as yourself.

    The FTC needs more funding to tackle this in more industries. Unfortunately the small penalties will not stop companies from doing what all Americans hate. Add on subsidies, taxes breaks at the state and local level, as well as medicaid and other federal benefits for underpaid employees means not only are they not capitalistic but rather we are subsidizing predatory businesses. A CEO can make millions to hurt everyone else just to show an inflated profit margin for stock holders. I say inflated because the subsidization of corporate america to line their own pockets needs to stop. They don't pay enough in taxes, salaries, benefits, and thus rape the American public financially in many ways besides just low wages.
