"Call Erin a slut and hang up"

dems platform is "Don't side with the republicans"

They've adjusted the rules. In any case this time there's no obvious heir apparent.

Which is not a real platform

They will not win until their house is in order

Their Platform is the Progressive Stack.

It's something both parties need really

You know what's funny? The thing that made me into a republican was never hearing ANYTHING good about them

They need to redefine themselves

A lot will be told by what the House works on out of the gate

you saying the assassination of Ocasio Cortez by right wing coca cola deathsquads?

Realistically there's something good about everyone

Good and evil are subjective and not a reasonable metric

So far I'm seeing a Medicare "buy in" for those 50-64yo

Yeah but I never heard anything positive ever about republicans, And then I started looking at what they had to say

A $15/hr minimum

And life made a lot more sense to me

the republican stances aren't positive cuz they're realistic, and have solutions, not goals

15/hr min is dumb, it needs to adjust with cost of living and inflation

its not "lets make the world a better place" its "Lets keep things stable"

Not everywhere is the same a single rate will not work

Why want a unrealistic goal

cuz it sounds good on paper

and western people don't have concern for life anymore, so they have concern for moral goodness

Tim wants to live in a van down by the river.

I want to live in a small home.
But I can't even afford a studio because col is fucked compared to minimum wage

And I live in the jurisdiction of the socialist state of Seattle.

pff

come back when you have 52% tax for anyone earning more than 60k per year

then go and call something socialist

We have the highest minimum wage in the nation and a socialist in the city leadership

I'm in Europe, the democratic party is looking capitalist to me

Lol

I liked bernies idea of max wage for ceos based off the average income of their employees

No

Cause the rampant wealth hording is bad imo

That just leads to LESS employees to keep the average up.

they don't hoard it into a big bunker like Scrooge McDuck though,

Most of that money is invested back into the country

Yet the income they pay their workers has not kept up with inflation

thats cuz the jobs aren't worth more than that

if you want higher wages, get less employees that can do the job
