In the country’s defense, those assholes literally ran the government from the highest level for 4 years and
gave up powerwere forced to give up power after their term ended. We have a pretty robust system. I am concerned that so many people are so stupid to be hoodwinked by him and his ilk, but the system was built to withstand this type of shit…at least for a single time.Meanwhile Biden and democrats have been out there with things like the Inflation Reduction Act and the Infrastructure Bill actually helping Americans. If you think that the government isn’t capable of doing positive or good for it’s people anymore, you haven’t been paying attention. It may not be sweeping, and only barely enacted, but a lot of good has been done recently.
It’s the illusion of positive change. The government is basically playing tug-o-war with the people. We have positive change, then the next guy comes and wipes it all away, and we’re back to square 1. Look at women’s rights, LGBT rights, basic human rights, etc. We thought we were safe yet here we are fighting the same fight as 50+ years ago. We’re moving backwards! People can’t afford to rent/buy homes, the environment is burning to the ground, food is expensive, education is not only expensive but apparently wrong now too? I mean, how did we get here? We were all tricked into thinking Obama becoming president meant the country was moving away from it’s ugly, racial, past. We got lazy. Then Trump gets elected and it all came rushing back x10. Now we’re back to making progress again? The ultra rich have the government under their control and we’re all just here for their entertainment. We fight against each other for basic scraps when it comes to human decency and for what? We need sustained, positive change that lasts longer than 1-2 presidential elections and we need it now. Trump may be an idiot, but plenty of wanna-be fascists saw his mistakes and will learn from them. The next time we get a Trump 2.0, democracy will die. We cannot afford that to happen, which is why I said we are walking a fine line between democracy and fascism. And until we get actual progressive movements that last, I don’t see our government doing us any good.
Biden and the democrats doing such good things like preventing the working class from striking. Take the blinders off.
The rail road workers got everything they wanted and more. The admin followed up even if the media fell off. They also just raised the construction workers minimum wages on federal contracts.
Did you ask him to take the blinders off because you wanted a second set for yourself?
Wowee you are really drinking that kool-aid aren’t you?
Sick leave? You know that crucial safety issue of staying home when you can’t perform your job. How about the skeleton crews the rail companies run giving inspectors a total of 2 minutes per car to do mandatory inspections? All these issues labor was raising before the national disaster of East Palestine.
Do you even know what you are championing in this statement? “CSX was the first to grant paid sick days to several of its unions and has now granted sick days to 61% of its 17,089 unionized employees.” OH boy 10k people got 4 days of sick leave, what a joke. That’s bread crumbs. It’s nothing to celebrate, that’s what the rail companies want to diffuse the public pressure.
I’ll take the good with the bad. Better than literal criminals and conmen. Some good shit was done. C’est la vie.
While I was happy to see someone point out the strike prevention, I do appreciate your response. It’s a nice reminder to appreciate what we can.
labor is a fight and that’s all there is to it… people have to fight before anyone will stick their necks out… my grandpa was a coal miner “back in the day”, and he had a great job because they went on strike when it was needed… and they took care of scabs… they didn’t fuck around…
