A government whose solution to almost every problem is to drill for more more oil, fill more prisons, make the rich richer, or sell more weapons is not a government that solves our problems; it is a government that perpetually creates them.

Bring the solutions. Donโ€™t just complain all the time. What are your solutions? We canโ€™t run the nation on wind and solar. Let all the murderers out? Do you have no common sense?

That's not government, that's some people stealing the rings of our collective power. Now we have to reclaim it. Can't be easy bcuz they play dirty.

% of people in extreme poverty and in ordinary poverty falls every decade since the early XIX century. We are not doing as bad as some people make it seem. Everyone's getting richer, not only the 1%.

And a government run by Congressmen & Presidents who listen only to their wealthy donors is not a democracy, it's an oligarchy.

I'd put govt that 'prints unprecedented amounts of money' at the top of that list of creating problems
