And now we sit back and watch as the government does nothing about it
So true. We've been on a tax-cut & deregulate spiral for 40+ years and it feels like we're left with a government that can't accomplish anything anymore.
I'm hopeful with Harris but my god do we have to hold her feet to the fire.
My man, if Obama or Biden had free reign, we'd be living in a very different world right now. The feet you need to hold to the fire are in Congress
Congress. The place where they’ll take even more money out of the abysmally underfunded education, nutrition and child care programs, and send them to a single overbudget gross expenditure in who-the-fuck-knows.
But right now it’s the god damn useless House. Before it was McConnell’s Senate treachery. The legislative branch would work wonders if both houses were blue.
