    Look at what we're spending our public money on NOW and tell me this wouldn't be a better plan:

      Public funding for journalism. Public funding for elections. Public funding for healthcare. Public funding for science research. Public funding for schools, parks, museums, libraries, universities. We need to start using our tax dollars to make our lives better.

    The only thing that could have prevented this is preserving the 90% tax rates of the 1950s. Billionaires do this because they’re billionaires. (Preserving the media consolidation rules Regan killed would have helped too.)

      I get that everyone is feeling raw but if you are gonna jump on here and chide people for cancelling their WaPo subscriptions you should be able to explain how increased circulation revenue would have prevented this.
