Strike Debt abolished $15m of people's debt

Strike Debt abolished $15m of people's debt
Sun, 11/17/2013 - by Truthloader

Strike Debt - an offshoot of the Occupy Wall Street Movement - launched a project to buy up debt belonging to ordinary Americans and abolish it so that they never have to pay it back. A year later the group's raised more than $600,000 and already used two-thirds of that money to clear nearly $15m personal debt caused by medical bills. And now it plans to go after student debt. We spoke to Andrew Ross from Strike Debt to find out more.

What remains unknown is whether post-truth Republicans will succeed in 2024 as the Nazis did in 1933.

Based on details that have emerged about Trump’s presidential agenda, the far-right Heritage Foundation plans for the next GOP president to have all the tools necessary to demolish multicultural democracy and establish a white, Christian ethnostate that imposes a gender apartheid not unlike the Taliban’s Afghanistan.

Donald Trump, Hitler

Like Hitler, Trump has a unique command of propaganda, a captivating public presence, and he knows how to drive home narratives beneficial to him and harmful to his enemies.
