Long story short: tell our government to crack down on federal contractor CEO pay and outlaw betting on elections. Use the email/petition tools in the following paragraphs to communicate your will.
The Other 98 helps you tell President Biden to crack down on excessive CEO pay in corporations that contract with our government. Because once you take taxpayer money, you have to play by taxpayer rules! And our laws already empower President Biden to mandate that federal contractors narrow the gap between executive pay and typical worker pay. What on Earth can right-wingers reasonably say to that? Nothing, but we'll still get a load of nanny-state-American-Caesar-kill-innovation-kill-jobs-wokeness nonsense. Just remember: we taxpayers should make the rules about how our government spends our money. And seriously, nobody likes overpaid bosses!
Public Citizen helps you tell federal regulators to outlaw betting on elections. You know how your friends and co-workers all say their favorite sporting events are rigged after they lose bets on them? Think of how bad that'll get when we start letting everyone bet on elections – and people in power will absolutely rig those, particularly if a lot of folks bet a certain way. Alas, the D.C. Court of Appeals just allowed betting corporation Kalshi to start taking bets on which party will control the House or Senate next year; Pandora never did anything so foolish. We already treat political races too much like they're sporting events, and if we don't start giving our democracy more respect, we'll be ruled by assholes forever.
