So many good ideas when they don't have power to implement them, funny. Sort of like how they always talk about "ending tax breaks for companies that ship jobs overseas" every four years.
I see it feeding into the both parties are the same narrative.
Democrats propose progressive things ONLY when they know it has no chance of happening. That way progressives vote for them, but the corporate overlords arent inconvenienced.
When pro-corporate (republican) policies pass, as they always do, the only difference between the parties is that the republicans will celebrate the passing, while the democrats will look sad and issue a scorn press release. But in reality, they do nothing to stop it.
AKA: See every budget deal where the elderly and students are hurt while rich companies get thrown more tax breaks.
So yes, both parties are the same in that the end goal is to pleasure corporations. All the rest of the time it's proposing things they know cant pass.
I think the only ones who actually do exactly what they say theyll do are the far right evangelicals. Marriage, abortion, etc.
