What we need is people who actually write up policy proposals. It doesn't matter whether you have a senate majority, you need to write the policy proposals now. What actually changes things is societal pressure, and you only build that up by showing that another way is possible, which you show by writing down how exactly you would run an alternative society. For which you have to write down policy proposals.

The fact that Democrats don’t have a Project 2027 or Project 2029 runbook proves they don’t know what they’re doing.

The fact that Democrats don’t have a Project 2027 or Project 2028 runbook proves that they're not even trying.

Either way they’re inept.

Corporate America (bankers, markets, etc.) prefer it this way. This isn’t a conspiracy theory — bankers have run the show (entirely) since the early 70s.

Ah yes, “(((bankers)))”

Sure bud. Humans are terrible at this shit.

Goddamnit, no, actual bankers of many faiths (or lack thereof) gained leverage and a majority “stake” at the table by buying munis and treasuries when literally ALL bids ceased during the stagflation era of the 70s.

Everybody who's complaining about "the rich" or "the oligarchs" should invest a few thoughts into how to actually formulate a law that makes society a better place.
