Socialist who believes we must defeat fascism, that neoliberal capitalism is no longer viable even by capitalist standards, and that we must consolidate green social democracy – all while building movement strong/large enough to achieve true socialism ASAP
The final group of #GameChangersPolicy has dropped. Housing, finance, public investment, and more. We focus on how to change the rules of a rigged game. Check them out!
Game Changers: Economic Policies for a Working AmericaWhat if we rewrote the rules of our economy to better serve people, communities, and the public interest? This week's Game Changers proposals explore bold ideas for Righting the Rules, from financial regulation and housing to public investment and tax policy. 🌐 GameChangersPolicy.org
This group is on finance, a sector badly in need of reform.

A great proposal by @moira.bsky.social Birss about how to deal with the climate-induced insurance crisis. The latest from @gamechangerspolicy.bsky.social
Moira BirssClimate change-fueled disasters threaten the safety of our homes & insurance provides a financial safety net to help us recover. But current insurance systems are failing, leaving households high (& not dry). What can the federal government do? I've got a proposal: peri.umass.edu/publication/...
And finally, shouldn't decent housing be a human right? It is, in the Universal Declaration of Human Rights. Let's make it real. We've been waiting about 75 years. This one is great.
isaacHere's the proposal from @aldasky.bsky.social, Maddison Wells, and myself on how we can eliminate housing and energy insecurity immediately for millions of people while also driving deep residential decarbonization for the climate. It's win-win-win policy for people, planet, and faith in government.

*The second quarter GDP report is expected to show modest growth and little evidence of an AI-driven productivity boom, while tariffs, war, and inflation continue to weigh on the economy* Jul 28, 2026 By @deanbaker13.bsky.social #GDP #UnitedStates cepr.net/publications...
GDP Preview: What to Expect in the Second Quarter 2026 ReportSecond quarter GDP will test AI's productivity promises as growth slows, inflation stays elevated, and tariffs and war weigh on the economy.cepr.netThis is a long-term project. Obviously the socialist movement doesn't have the necessary social base yet to be capable of ending capitalism. Building that will take decades. In the meantime we bond and work with these groups to defeat authoritarian nationalism by consolidating green social democracy
geraldmcgrew• the working class • racial, ethnic, and other oppressed minorities • women • youth • environmental activists • peace activists These are the constituencies that must be organized to achieve socialism. Together they represent the vast majority of the population ✊
