The world this wiki

The idea of LLM Wiki applied to a year of the Economist. Have an LLM keep a wiki up-to-date about companies, people & countries while reading through all articles of the economist from Q2 2025 until Q2 2026.

Chris Van Hollen

Democratic senator and presidential aspirant. In March 2026 Van Hollen unveiled a roughly deficit-neutral tax plan that would eliminate income taxes for singles earning below $46,000 and couples earning below $92,000, paired with hefty surtaxes on those earning more than $1m a year. His plan has attracted co-sponsors from both the left and centre of the Democratic Party. He is a co-sponsor of a bill from Elizabeth Warren that would impose a 2% annual wealth tax on fortunes over $50m.

I couldn't remember when I had been so disappointed. Except perhaps the time I found out that M&Ms really DO melt in your hand.
