M4A, legal marijuana, or green new deal

what does legal cannabis have to do with "progressivism"?

Used to be that neither party wanted to admit that they wanted to raise taxes. Now democrats run on the promise


Became possible when success was demonized in this country. Used to be everyone’s goal. Now taxing anyone more successful than you is the left’s battle cry....meanwhile those telling others to “pay their fair share” don’t pay diddly squat.

Biden seems to be giving progressives lip service and may pass the $15 minimum wage, but expecting something like M4A, legal marijuana, or green new deal is pretty out there.


Maybe he won't do any of that, but this Biden is light years different than the Biden that was a Delaware Senator for several years. And it's possible he may at some point revert back to that, but looking at his cabinet nominees, his staff, and the list of federal judge candidates he released this morning doesn't really suggest that he will.

I doubt Biden knows Clinton isn't running around to hide behind. He's weak, and there is no way he is dictating this crap.

Their entire program is progressive.

Communists usually are incapable of understanding where the middle really is, so its perfectly understandable you are lost here.

The media will help hide him from himself as long as possible. As few public appearances as to not raise too many questions, straight teleprompter and no questions. He still won't make it 18 months though.

They are desperately trying to cover for him. They are also trying to push this "Asian hate" BS that Biden and his ilk started.

There is collusion between Media and progressives. Considering the type of men who usually go into media. this isn't surprising.

Obama and Biden both lucked into inheriting a situation where massive expansions of federal spending were seen as "necessary" to save economy: great recession and covid19.

Actually, it is very misleading of me to claim the American rescue plan is a covid relief bill, considering the size of the bill is twice as large as the decline in economic output caused by covid.

Very unhappy with it.

Hopefully Bernie bought a book on economics. He clearly needs one.

Harris, Soros, and Susan Rice are running this country.

The country is about to get a crash course in MMT. The stakes are incredibly high. An unnecessary gamble that could negatively affect everyone here.

Biden is the worst President in my lifetime. I don't know if he could frick up more if he tried.

Economically, he is making a disaster.

Let's see, 1.9T stimulus, followed by 1.8T in taxes. How about no stimulus and tax cuts?

rise up and do what? Conservative americans slaughtered biden in the polls but due to a few rounding errors biden won. More conservatives voting against moronic bufoons like biden isn't going to matter if elections can continue to be rigged by letting illegals, the deceased, and computer algorithms vote.


Thank you!

Sounds like you have an excellent grasp on this. "Methods such as loopholes" is the first class in tax school

And, its 100% preventable.

But those 30 year old females that voted for him will foot the bill until they retire. By the time they retire, it may be 75 years of age so the gubment can extract every penny they can from you.

Anyone in the top 50% of income in this country is now just a source of funding.

His top priority, appoint minorities.

That's what the Democrat party has been reduced to. It will also be their demise.
