2/15 It's important to start with understanding the correlation between inequality and violence.
When socio-economic disparities widen, frustrations increase. This can result in heightened tensions and often leads to more violence. #IncomeInequality #Violence

3/15 Studies show that societies with larger income gaps tend to have higher rates of violence.

1/5 As ppl try their best to stay home, political leaders need to stop scolding us for not #socialdistancing & start addressing real issues: underfunded healthcare, unfair wages & working conditions of essential-service workers, imprisonment of ppl (ex: migrant facilities, jail).
2/5 It is unjust for individuals to bear the brunt of #capitalism, which has caused these very issues by prioritizing money over ppl. Those who suffer the most are our most vulnerable: elderly who are more likely to die from #Covid_19 & students heading back to school this week.
3/5 #Onlinelearning will never live up to the in-person experience. Children & youth will lose out on relationships w/ peers & caring adults, learning supports & personal growth. Students will suffer from the consequences of #capitalism b/c we're not addressing the real issues.
THREAD: Today, @ewarren released her first-term plan to fight for & achieve Medicare For All. Here’s my take on why it covers the most people, fastest, most generously, and gets Medicare For All to happen...at all....and FASTER than any other proposal. elizabethwarren.com/plans/m4a-tran…
@ewarren Faster: Immediately, through executive action, @ewarren will revolutionize prescription drugs. Not band aid solutions like importing drugs from Canada, but using executive action to break up patent monopolies that keep prices high. #Bold #SystemicChange #FightPharma
@ewarren Faster: Instead of waiting years to expand Medicare to include robust dental/vision/long-term care, and waiting years to get millions more into Medicare, she’ll pass that in her first 100 days. Only 51 votes needed (even if filibuster exists) and achievable to pass quickly.
