Cutting off you nose to spite your face isn't good policy. There are many things in the historical record that Biden has to answer for, but his current labor policy isn't one of them.

Cutting off you nose to spite your face isn't good policy. There are many things in the historical record that Biden has to answer for, but his current labor policy isn't one of them. Just take the W there, and sort the rest of his boilerplate neoliberalism out from it. With the exception of his atrocious Israel policy (where he's not alone, thanks to decades of AIPAC dollars freely flowing inside the Beltway) he didn't enact any of those other policies by himself.
1) voting for the people who rigged the system to disenfranchise the voters is not a great way to get policies passed.
If the Democrats hadn't rigged the 2016, 2020, and now the 2024 primaries, maybe I would consider voting for them.
2) take what win? I don't see anyone winning anything. I have seen, in some small areas, minor declines in the rate of destruction of the working and middle classes.
No one but vulture capital, pharma and the MIC have made any gains under the former Senator From MBNA.
The rich have gotten richer and the poor have gotten poorer, same as every Democratic administration since Clinton and the neoliberal Republican Lite took over.
You're not wrong about any of it. It is, however, the system we're stuck with currently. So until you can propose a meaningful solution rather than just complaining about it, I'll take tinkering at the margins. Because the American public is too cowed to ask for more than that.
"Cutting off you nose to spite your face isn't good policy"
Just reread this and am really horrified by the lack of humanity here.
Is not supporting the deliberate murder of civilians, the for-profit incarceration of black men, the crushing of the middle class "cutting off my nose to spite your face"?
Glad to see your investments are doing well. Don't twist an ankle walking over the less fortunate.

My meaning solution is to not preserve the people impeding progress.
Tinkering around the margins isn't helping - it's preserving the people who serve the corporations bleeding America dry.
You don't feed a parasite.
