This is how any corporation functions. First, increasing profits is done by attracting more customers. Then, once they have all the customers they're going to get, increasing profits is done by increasing prices or cutting costs.

subway really shot themselves in the foot (pun intended) by playing so hard on the five dollar footlong thing now im seeing ads for a temporary promotion for $6.99 footlongs and like. nobody is going to think of that as a deal. im not paying more than five dollars for a subway footlong Ever and i know i cant get a footlong anywhere else for five dollars either but thats not the point bc nobody else built their entire brand around selling me a mediocre product for exactly five dollars. except little caesars of course but their pizza has gotten at least twice as good since i was in high school so the price bump is very acceptable to me.

Every company that advertises itself based on a fixed price is doomed to hypocritcal failure. Dollar Tree, Five Below, ♪$5 foot longs♪ (any any any), 99 cent Arizona teas, nickel cokes and penny candy (way before even my parents' time, but my grandparents remember them)

It’s not lost on me that Bernie Sanders is the only mainstream politician touring the country rn listening to Americans’ concerns, giving them hope that a better world is still possible. Not campaigning for President, not an election year, just inspiring swing town voters to use their power to incite change in their communities.

Bernie is 83yo, doing the work that every single Democrat could be doing simply in their own district. He’s packing overflow rooms by the thousands in suburban and rural towns, not “democratic strongholds”. It is possible to get through the next four years but the status quo Dems aren’t going to make that happen.

Imagine what a true progressive party could do for the US. Leftist policy is popular and wins elections. Bernie and others have told us this for decades. If you tuned out his message before, I have to wonder what side you’re truly on. Because his shtick has not wavered with everyday Americans.

Not me, us.

When I was in college in the 80s, I lived in Vermont. Bernie was the mayor of Burlington then. I had the opportunity to vote for him on his first run for Congress. Life happened and I didn’t get another chance until 2016 when I registered as a Democrat for the very first time in order to vote for Bernie in the primary. I have never agreed with every single thing he’s said or done (Shrub’s Iraq adventure was one notable thing), but I have always supported him.

Too few politicians of any stripe are willing to get out and have real, public conversations with their constituents. If your rep comes home on the regular and holds town halls or other events to listen to you, go and talk to them. Never let an opportunity pass you by. Real democracy is an ongoing conversation. Real leaders never ignore a constituent or a hard question. Public service should be a satisfying thing to do, but that doesn’t mean it has to be easy.

this guy really always had something to say about almost everything and nearly all of it is still completely relevant almost 200 years later. fascinating stuff.

the philly natives are showing up to shit and piss all over this anonymous facebook user and it has such beautiful philadelphia energy. i can hear the diphthongs. i love people from philadelphia. i didn't even know that's where this was taken, but i really couldn't be happier that it wound up being the subject of this post. few other outcomes would result in what i can only hope will be weeks of indignant philadelphians letting loose on yuppie assholes in the tags.
