The right has dragged the discussion so far right that we're arguing for the LEAST BASIC necessities and have to compromise away from them.

We're not arguing, like we should, should new mothers get 1 year maternity leave or 1.5 years?

No... We're arguing should they get ANY leave, or nothing???

It's like this for a million issues, that affect 99% of us, but unfortunately 50% of our population is so stupid and lacks empathy that they are arguing against their own interest.

Billionaires should be fighting 99% of us, instead they have 50 % of the morons fighting the other 50 %.
