Perfect? This is sacrificing bearly good enough for slightly better than the other guy. In addition even politicans who used to advocate for public services are starting to abandon that as the Democrats take a hard shift right. Democrats have proven that they are either unwilling and/or unable to do what is nessesary for the workers. Its too late to appease the masses with better healthcare and a $15 minimum wage, the corruption in the system has been exposed and change is desperately needed. We need fundamental economic reform, the tax code needs to be replaced, foreign policy needs to be restructured, infrastructure needs to be not only fixed but expanded, and gun laws need to be changed. These are core changes that Democrats have promised for decades yet continue to fail to provide, now its too late. The Democrats sat around with ideas of infinite economic growth and unlimited power, now their hubris will be their downfall.
Sweet. Democrats had plans for a lot of those things, and you guys stayed home and now we have a Nazi in the white house.
Did you not read what I said? I voted Kamala but I am fed up and done with this nonsense. People voted for Obama to do this, he didnt. People voted for Biden to do this, he didnt. Now people like me are expected that things will magically change as the Democrats openly abandon their promises to appeal to the mythical moderate Republican.
Obama had an entire republican party and Joe Libermann stopping medicare for all. Blame Joe Liebermann, not the guy who tried to get it done.
Biden had one of the thinnest congresses in history, yet his ledger is still full of progressive asks. That apparently isn't good enough, because he didn't get you 100% of what you wanted.
This is the entire problem. You expect 100% of what you demand, and when you don't get it, you're 'done' and don't want to participate anymore.
Thank you for highlighting this for me.
They got less than 5% of what I wanted and the next candidate will give me 3% if im lucky (also both Biden and Obama didnt try to reform the system in any meaningful way)
