DESCRIPTION:People over Profit: Billionaires Shouldn’t Rule America\n\nProtest on 
 250th anniversary of the start of the American Revolution\n\nSat, Apr 19 at 
 12:00pm–2:00pm PT (part of a weekly protest)\n\nInfo:

 April 19, 2025 marks the 250th anniversary of the start of the American 
 Revolution. Over a year later, the Continental Congress would sign the 
 Declaration of Independence on July 4th against tyranny, declaring that "a 
 Tyrant, is unfit to be the ruler of a free people." \n\nThe United States 
 is not a corporation, and our government is not a for-profit enterprise. 
 Elon Musk is not a government official. He’s a billionaire with no 
 accountability to the American people, and nobody voted for him. Our 
 democracy deserves better.\n\nMusk and Trump will only be defeated by a 
 massive, bipartisan movement of everyday Americans standing up against 
 corruption, authoritarianism, and huge tax breaks for the rich, while 
 fighting for the programs that working people need.\n\nThis is a 
 BIPARTISAN, PEACEFUL Protest No violence or Destruction of Property will be 
 tolerated\n\n\nThe People over Profit Movement\n\nRight now, millions of 
 Americans across the political divide are struggling. 60% live paycheck to 
 paycheck, many earn very low wages, and 85 million lack proper health 
 insurance. College is too expensive for young people, a quarter of seniors 
 live on $15,000 a year or less, and childhood poverty is among the highest 
 in the world. We also face a severe shortage of affordable housing.\n\nAt 
 the same time, the wealthiest Americans, like Elon Musk, Jeff Bezos, and 
 Mark Zuckerberg, are getting richer. Since Trump’s election, their 
 combined wealth has grown by over $200 billion—more than the bottom half 
 of the country. Meanwhile, the middle class shrinks, and democracy is at 
 risk.\n\nOur goal is to protect democracy and create an economy that works 
 for everyone, not just the rich. As the wealthiest country in the world, we 
 have the potential to use new technologies to improve everyone’s lives, 
 but instead, most of the wealth goes to the people who need it the 
 least.\n\nWe must make healthcare a human right, raise wages to a living 
 standard, improve public education, address the housing crisis, create 
 good-paying jobs to fight climate change, and end all forms of 
 discrimination.\n\nWe the People believe that in the richest country in the 
 history of the world we must establish that:\n\n--Healthcare is a human 
 right and must be available to all regardless of income.\n\n--Every worker 
 in America is entitled to earn a decent income. We must raise the minimum 
 wage to a living wage and make it easier for workers to join 
 unions.\n\n--We must have the best public educational system in the world, 
 from childcare to vocational training, to graduate school – available to 
 all.\n\n--We must address the housing crisis and build the millions of 
 units of low-income and affordable housing that we desperately 
 need.\n\n--We must create millions of good paying jobs as we lead the world 
 in combating the existential threat of climate change.\n\n--We must abolish 
 all forms of bigotry.\n\n
