Socialism: The government owns most of the major industries. This is an extreme system that seems to fail. Corporate Socialism: (our current system) The government mostly benefits wealthy corporations. Most major industries are privately owned (capitalism), but still receive massive handouts, bailouts, and other benefits at the expense of the taxpayer. It is driven by corporations’ ability to influence the laws with large amounts of money that results in legislation that favors their ability to make even larger amounts of money. In this system the wealthy become more wealthy at the expense of the lower classes. This system is essentially a Plutocracy (ruled by the wealthy). Democratic Socialism: The government mostly benefits the citizens. most major industries are privately owned (capitalism), but they have to stand on their own without handouts from the government. The tax burden previously funneled to the wealthy corporations is used to improve the lives of citizens instead. This enables the government to help fund improvements to public services such as: Police, Firemen, Libraries, Roads and Interstates, Education, and Healthcare. The system is driven by people working together and lifting each other up. In this system the middle class thrives and poverty decreases. This system is more Democratic (ruled by the people) than our current system.

Monday’s sessions were the latest in a string of conversations Mamdani has held with prominent city business leaders. He met last week with Blackstone Inc. President and Chief Operating Officer Jonathan Gray, and held separate sessions at City Hall recently with head executives at Bank of America Corp. and Chobani. The meetings come as Mamdani, 34, has backed a flurry of proposals that push for higher taxes on the wealthy. That support has prompted blowback from the billionaire class and the real estate industry, which says a new levy on second homes will hurt the luxury market.

Many billionaires get paid in equity, rather than cash. With low salaries mitigating taxes, they own massive businesses or mountains of stock that don't pay large dividends but grow in value exponentially over time. These assets aren't taxed unless they are sold. It's called the “realization” principle. In his report, “How to Tax the Ultrarich,” Galle explains: "Taxing only at realization means that individuals who make most of their money through investments get to choose when to pay tax … One of these options is 'never.'”
A study released last summer by professors at the University of California, Berkeley, found that the all-in tax rate paid by the richest Americans is 20% lower than the median American household
Overall, more Black and Hispanic students enrolled in four-year universities in fall 2024 than in fall 2023. But in nearly all highly selective private and public colleges — the 85 that accept 25 percent or fewer applicants — Black enrollment declined or remained flat; the same was true of Hispanic enrollment at more than half of those institutions. Public flagships, typically the most selective public universities in their state, experienced a 6 percent increase in the enrollment of Black and Hispanic first-year students. Yet at 20 of the 50 flagships, Black student enrollment fell or flatlined, and Hispanic student enrollment fell or essentially stayed the same at 16.

Journal retracts paper by state senator (and former mathematician) Here’s something you don’t see every day: A state senator with an academic publication record, in his former career as a mathematician. Even more unusual: A retraction of one of his 15-year-old papers, after the journal realized most of the results were incorrect. According to the notice, some aspects of the paper by Daniel Biss — now a democratic Illinois State Senator — are also “ambiguous.” We spoke with Senator Biss, who told us he had been contacted by an editor who told him someone had raised questions about the paper, but he didn’t have much input in the notice:
Both Fine and Biss, along with another candidate, Phil Andrew, are listed on JAC’s website under 2026 primary candidates, despite JAC saying it “does not get involved in primary races” unless “an opponent truly clashes with our values, (including being anti-Israel, anti-semitic, or pro-life.” Biss has accepted $5,000 from the pro-science organization 3.14 Action, which faced criticism in 2024 for quietly funneling money from AIPAC, a pro-Israel political action committee, to a pro-Israel candidates in an Oregon special election.

A screenshot of a reply to a tweet from Gunther Eagleman (@Chicago1Ray on the platform formerly known as Twitter) from me dated June 18th, 2024 about Trey Gowdy. The tweet reads: “May 2017: @Chicago1Ray wants Trump to name Trey Gowdy FBI director. June 2024: @Chicago1Ray thinks Trey Gowdy is a “uniparty loser” & favors Matt Gaetz to him. Exhibit A of some of y’all never accepting facts. Once someone says something you don’t like, they’re a loser.”
