Substack is the only platform not currently owned by a billionaire, and I have full editorial control over my content.
It’s why I’m here. Thank you all for joining me.
Let’s redefine the future of media in America, together.
The problem with Social Security isn't "fraud."
The problem with Social Security is that as the rich have gotten richer, more of their income has escaped the cap on the SS payroll tax.
