I mean, these are all excellent policies. But I feel like they put the policy cart before the horse as they don't address any of the major issues this country has been facing for decades.
Healthcare? Still worse from Trump. But sure people aren't dying from rationing insulin they can't afford.
Military Spending? Worth it to protect Ukraine, but why are we increasing an already inflated budget we can't afford?
Minimum wage increasing for the first time in decades? How about student debt is forgiven for only the most vulnerable.
Public education? Higher education? Inflation? Job security? Voting rights? Abortion? Expanding the Supreme Court?
I'm not saying this administration hasn't done good for this country. And I'm certainly not saying the alternative would be better.
What I'm saying is that this countries house is on fire and you want us to clap when all the Biden admin has done is turn on the garden hose.
Sure we're "moving in the right direction" - but for the last 20 years the US keeps moving backwards much faster than it can move forward. Building this country back brick by brick doesn't do much when it keeps getting bulldozed.
If the Biden admin wants people to vote for them in droves, pulling the corporate hand out of their ass to enact some immediate and much needed changes through executive orders would be a fucking slam dunk. We all watched as the previous administration used the "unitary executive" theory to pass a bunch of horseshit we all now have to deal with, but when it comes to actual progress this admin doesn't want to take that path when it's the only one that will lead to actual long term systemic change.

The part you're not mentioning is where SCotUS slaps down the Democrats trying to help people in broad strokes and allows the objectively evil GOP policies that hurt people & pollute our environment.
See student loan forgiveness for the latest example.
Oh 100%. It's what I mean when I say we can't build up brick by brick when the country keeps getting bulldozed.
Student Loan forgiveness is a great example! But I feel abortion magically becoming a state issue is the best example since the Supreme Court made that decision despite established "stare decisis" doctrine, AND the fact that the last time we had a big disagreement about "states rights" it lead to a fucking Civil War. (According to the GOP that war was about states rights after all.)
