How long are we supposed to wait until the goal is 100% rather than 50% reduction in child poverty? How long are we supposed to wait before an American president will do more for healthcare than just what the health insurance companies will tell him he’s allowed to do? How long?

As long as you wait for goals, presidents, and companies. That's how long. All those can do, at the very best, is direct people to do things. It's people that do them, so why wait?

When we start putting nurses and doctors who have actual bedside care experience in charge of the decisions.

For God's sake give this guy a chance. He inherited a shit show and he's already made good progress

Forever. Poverty is a policy choice, and a tool to keep the poor desperate enough to accept less than a living wage.
