I am completely aware that politicians lie. Everyone seems to think that if I point out any concerns about the democratic party that I am obviously a republican. I'm trying to help people realize that the real battle isn't left vs right - its top vs bottom. You also have made that observation as well, it's a system that needs adjusting and it can only change if people stop kicking the can down the road and voting left vs right -blue team vs red team.
FWIW I feel like folks should have time off work, I feel like folks should also have healthcare, body autonomy, living wages, free speech, and to live in peace. All of which used to be democratic views.
