      No one thinks we will ever change those in the orange cult. Like zombies, they are long gone and collectively barely have one functioning brain cell.

      Dems need to sell their wins to get their base excited - I’m so sick of the brasè attitude that most Dems have regardless of who their candidate is. They could have the most perfect candidate and they are always looking for someone else. They also need to get some independents on board. Neither party can win an election without getting some non-affiliated to vote for them.

          UBI is a joke and will only stand in the way of unity. To think the Dems should somehow rally around something that will never, ever happen is a pointless distraction. Might as well rally around the tooth fairy or unicorn and waste more time and energy instead of going after real issues.

            So what are we supposed to do? How do we get things to improve on a national scale in any significant way for workers? ~Cherri

              Support politicians who are brave enough to admit that we need to tax the rich and corporations at a higher rate, support programs that will bring manufacturing back to the US (no other industry is as bog of a job multiplier than manufacturing), support programs which lower the cost of entry for higher education.

              Hand outs do not work. Not only would they never, ever pass Congress, they shouldn’t even be considered. UBI is a goddamn joke pushed by those who smoke too much weed and have no goddamn clue about life.

                Corporate taxes shouldn’t be raised because corporate taxes are overwhelmingly regressive.

                Hand outs absolutely do work, and while I’m not on the UBI train, all welfare programs should basically just give cash instead of stamps/benefits/etc

            You’re basically just trying to sell doom & gloom to discourage people from wanting what is eminently attainable. Your reasons for doing so are your own, but one wonders if you’re just thoroughly indoctrinated, or if you have some other interest at stake.

      Amazing! The entire world is stupid, (insert as many additional derogatory terms as you wish). Except for you, of course!

      Good on you mate!

        True for values where “the entire world” is “Republicans and The Military (also Cops)”. So basically… false.

          Twist the words, add words, deflect from the point, anything to advance your “superior” intellect. I see what you did.

          Good on you mate!

          P.S. It didn’t work.
