Right to work state
How can I start trying to make a difference in peoples lives in a right to work state? I live in Tennessee, and any employer can decide to discard employees without explanation. I fell like this contributes to companies taking advantage of workers, including mine for whom I am a salaried manager who actually earns a living wage. For each of us, there are 8-10 others who I cannot pay more than 8 dollars an hour. This should be illegal
Breaking Points Content distribution
I agree with your idea to use a subscription based distribution model. But don't you think that you should post the free version of your show on other streaming networks like Rumble because of the issues you have with demonitization on youtube and the community standards flag you got on the Assange video? I am not suggesting you leave youtube but spreading your eggs to other baskets would probably be a good idea. And I believe youtube will continue to get worse with their content moderation decisions.
Terri Cohen
I'm a boomer socialist (radicalized in college in late 60s/early 70s) and love your show! My question/confusion is regarding Afghan refugees. Because the majority of them (or a family member) worked for the U.S. government, I tend to feel less sympathetic to their plight. While they are victims of U.S. imperialism, they in a sense supported it. Please help me understand this. Thanks!
FDA/Fauci’s role in the AZT scandal
Have you guys ever covered the AZT scandal that happened in the late 80s/early 90s? It was a poisonous medication they pushed during the AIDS pandemic and it’s a pretty crazy story (from what I know) that includes the names of major players in today’s pandemic. Fauci being one of them. This drug was apparently pulled from shelves after a failed trial to cure cancer and some researchers, for some reason, brought it back to the FDA for approval in treating chronic AIDS patients. From what I’ve heard this was also the first time the FDA fast tracked an approval like this. Most of the votes turned from unanimous “NO’s” during the panels approval meeting to very hesitant “yes’s” from all but one doctor that stuck to his guns and wouldn’t be swayed. This drug did SO MUCH HARM!!! And Fauci supposedly advocated for it (as head of the NIH at the time) before, during, and even after the damning results of what the drug truly did started to come out. Fauci and the FDA have terrible histories, especially when it comes to pandemics and fast tracking drugs!! Ppl need to know the history.
