How did he amass three houses and a net worth of more than $1 million? The surprisingly conventional middle-class climbing of a radical-sounding socialist.
While millions of families struggle to put food on the table Elon Musk, Jeff Bezos & Mark Zuckerberg own more wealth than the bottom HALF of Americans. That’s what oligarchy is about. That’s what a rigged economy is about. Is it any wonder that people in this country are angry?

Hidden inside of a Resolution (1st link) we will vote on today to bring rescissions to the floor is an order to pass H.Res 492 (2nd link) WITHOUT A VOTE. H.Res 492 changes the text of BBB after it already passed the House. Sneaky! https://t.co/k1oB65c58E
