The American people are not the problem. The problem is that our political system no longer serves the will of the people.
88% of the American people support our efforts to lower prescription drug costs — 88%! Is it just me, or is that an overwhelming majority of this country? I say we get this done. truthout.org/articles/poll-f…

Its as if getting affordable healthcare for people is just not on the agenda. Now that the barely agreed upon infrastructure bill has passed perhaps we can move on to other promises. When other countries hear what we have pay for medical care, they just don’t believe it.

The American people are part of the problem to the extent many still haven't realized the corruption throughout every facet of society. Both parties, corporate media, etc. The more people realize our problems are systemic, not tied to any person/party, the more we'll address it.

Valid point, also I always wonder at the people within the system claiming something is wrong with it but doing nothing to change, while empowering those making the bad calls and supporting them but telling US things need to change - wrong audience Bernie!

Your system doesn't work, it fails in every respect, and it's because the idea of service for the benifit of the people has been trumped by greed.

Problem is 1% controls all the media and American people are gullible. Lobbying is legalized bribery. We have oligarchy not democracy.
