The only kind of emergency our govt will respond to is something that upsets the banks or Wall St. A prez could have declared a medical emergency with Covid & expanded Medicare to everyone. A prez could declare a climate emergency & create a warp speed path to green energy. 1/2

The biggest problem with Americans is that we've been trained to expect too little & ask for too little. Koch brothers spent a lot of money convincing people that a govt which works for them is a "Nanny State." Kochs got what they paid for & the American people got screwed. 2/2

All true. RINOS: Resistors in name only. The same ones in denial over Roe V. Wade are asserting that future elections are not in danger. I think I'm calling it done, and emotionally divest and check out of caring for this country.

Capitalism is NOT just large corporations. Small businesses employ about 50% of all US jobs.

Americans aren’t trained to expect too little. Rather, folks are brainwashed into being something else.

It seems to me that most progressives think capitalism is just big corporations. That is all they talk about. I think it is worth reminding progressives that that is not true. Capitalism is NOT just large corporations. Small businesses employ about 50% of all US jobs.

People innovate government does not. We don’t want big government, we want less regulation.

"we've been trained to expect too little & ask for too little" ... Yeah, the very people that invented call centers, imagine if we started really demanding things.

It's amazing so many Americans support replacing the republic with plutocracy.
