The number of cross-border travellers going from Canada to the U.S. dropped by nearly 900,000 in March compared to the same month last year, according to the latest U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) data — easily one of the worst year-over-year drops recorded outside of the COVID-19 health crisis.

Their idea of great is to split us into two societies. One for the rich and one for the poor, just like the 1890s. Just this time they'll never look into how the other half live

The rockerfellas and Carnegies are back baby, just need a mass shooting of workers trying to organize again.

At least the Rockefellers and Carnegies of the world actually spread some of their wealth around by doing charity. Now, the aim was PR, these guys didn't give a shit about the poors either but at least they knew how to curate an image. Today's billionnaires want to see us actively suffering indefinitely.

He did feel some responsibility. This generation of wealthy psychopaths haven't implied they feel a shred.
