The cheapest average yearly rent for a 1 bedroom apartment in the country is in Alaska, at $8,156.88. A year’s pay at $7.25/hour comes to $15,080. They say you shouldn’t pay more than one-third of income on rent, so what gives? We need to raise the wage. — PolitiTweet.org

We don’t want to increase taxes on the rich just for the sake of it. 99% of Americans have a net worth less than $4.4 million. But if we tax those handful that are worth billions? That’s money that can go into child care, health care, or other services. We need a wealth tax. — PolitiTweet.org
