I get that infrastructure is important. I really do. But what happened to an increase in the minimum wage? What happened to fighting climate change? What happened to Medicare For All? What happened to countering police brutality? What happened to holding Trump accountable? 🤔

It’s been six months. There’s a lot to overcome—just stopping the momentum of the past four years takes a huge amount of effort.

None of those things put money into rich people's hands. "Infrastructure" is how they sell the sheep on passing more $$$ into their donor's businesses. $$$ that eventually ends up as "Billionaires increase wealth even more during the pandemic recovery than during the pandemic."

Once you realize that the only thing pols really care about is getting re-elected, it all will make sense and showering your donor class and constituents with other people's money is the easiest and most effective way to do it.

Well, infrastructure is bipartisan, and, there's a value in that, I can't really remember what it is right now, but something something something, vote for us in the midterms.
