The modern democratic party has adopted the positions of 2005 republicans. They might as well adopt the personnel of 2005 republicans too.
They are against public infrastructure and housing reform?
Yes the infrastructure package passed by Biden is barely enough funds to handle the backlog of maintenance issues in our failing infrastructure.
We are the richest country on earth, we should be building high speed rail like china. We should be investing and making the infrastructure of the future. Instead we can hardly keep our 80 year old rails running without our trains exploding.
I notice you only talk in buzzwords and never give out specifics. You say a lot without saying anything. In none of your comments do you actually give specific examples of anything or explain cause effect. It's pure buzzwords and vibes. Do you have a specific example of anything?
I gave many specific examples you have ignored. I tried to engage with you in good faith but it's obvious that sentiment is one sided. Have a good day.
You haven't given a specific thing. You called general topics such as Biden Infrastructure Package. And then you tied it to some kind of gap I funding. But you never explained where and how.
You never give specific. You talk a lot in generalities. In all your comments. All of them.
Give me one specific cause and effect tied to democratic 'policy. Just one.
1sh Edit: to all the downvowers:
Saying broad general things like "Biden s infrastructure package fell short in funding" is an empty statement without specifics. It doesn't tell us anything. It's a feeling. It doesnt tell us how or why. It's a feeling. And people like Kronos keep up the narrative propped up thanks to these declarations based in.... Nothing. Give us clear examples.
Not asking for the moon here. If this is too much, then what even is there to discuss?
I am with you on this. A pet peeve of mine is people making vague meaningless claims. Because that is one of Traitorapist Trump's main tactics. It happens mostly on the right but sometimes on the left too.
It's the bread and butter of sophists. Everyone has strong opinions about politics, but when you lift the hood you see most of it is manufactured.
