There's no lobbyist money in any of that. Do you expect your politicians to be poor just like you?

Looking at the polling, that's also what a large contingent of Republicans are saying.

That's what most Americans are saying. The biggest voting block in America is independents. Yet we stupidly keep lettings the elites in the margins have all the air in every room so they can pretend-fight over invented talking points as a distraction so we can't stop them taking our time/money/resources.

Top of the list should be prosecuting the fascists and plugging the holes in the legal system that have allowed this country to get into the state it's in. Without that nothing else matters because the next administration will just rip it all out again.

But no aid to Ukraine means Europe, your biggest trade partner will be in danger, hence your economy will suffer and you'll become more broke... There's a reason why we have the ICC and why we have foreign aid, cause ww1 and ww2 taught us that peace is way more lucrative then getting sucked into a war... So idk foreign aid makes everyone richer imo

Sure, this might be what the voters are saying. Hell, it’s what some of the elected officials are saying too, but what they say and what they do are two very different things.

Nothing will change until we get money out of politics and neither party is willing to have the discussion, much less act on it.

Were the only major power without heath care for all, doesn’t make sense. Unless it would suppress wages and or make lots of job loss I’m all for it. I guess the questions, what happens to HSA’s and FSA’s. I have a few thousand in an HSA I’d like not to lose

I honestly don't think that any entrenched politician has even the slightest capability of "Listening" to people they so obviously hold in contempt for being less well off. The career people are all set for life (yet oddly still greedy enough) to sell anyone out for personal gain.

This is what most normal earthlings everywhere are saying. Now, what's the holdup I wonder?

Ah yes, "healthcare over war"

Right up there with classic slogans such as "cake rather than crap" and "better a good night's sleep than getting stabbed in the dick with a screwdriver"

The current state of the Democrats will not listen to that.
