Universal health care: tuition free state colleges and universities (which we had until the 1960's) & tech schools; a livable wage; paid maternity & paternity leave; required sick pay and free child care are considered MODERATE POSITIONS in every advanced democracy except ours.

If you want a good wage, work in the sanitation industry...

Funny that Biden has promised to supply pensions for Ukrainians while at the same time working hard and spending tens-of-$billions to ensure that as many of them as possible get killed. 🙄

Marianne, you'll need to end the Fed, drasticly slash the Pentagon budget, overhaul our foreign policy, eliminate redundant federal bureaucracy and cut taxes across the board to achieve this. You down?

There's nothing "advanced" about socialism. Those "advanced" democracies are collapsing under their own weight, which is the inevitable outcome.

Everything I see is about free shit, never training people to go beyond being a poor worker... which is what state colleges do. Nothing about promoting people to be in small businesses, apprenticeships or success... just maintaining the status quo of poverty.

Oddly, people like Reagan promoted the success of the people... the shining city on a hill was not about a welfare state. It takes less effort to be successful than to scare up money for free shit. Free stuff is not a vision for the future.

Well, those democracies aren't the same as ours either. You can be arrested for mis gendering someone in the UK, no thanks!
