I wish morons like @Heathme used their anti-Warren logic on everything.
Why have guns for self defense? Aren't we all going to die/be killed anyway?
Why build roads? Won't all the people who didn't have roads be jealous?
Why develop vaccines? Won't all the people who died be angry?
Why fund the military? Won't all the people who died using weapons/tactics that will soon be outdated by innovation be upset?
Why do anything to improve society?

This is concerning.
Iowa is white, rural, and trump has a higher avg approval rating than most states. But if this is indicative of the handful of swing states in the rust belt that Dems need to win, then it is going to be almost impossible for Dems to win the EC in 2020. Georgia, Texas, and Arizona aren’t blue yet. So if we remain locked out in the south while Florida and the rust belt continue to slide Republican, 2020 is going to be really tough.
I hope things are looking different in Michigan, Pennsylvania, and Wisconsin than in Iowa.

Why has Bloomberg gained no traction? I’ve said for a decade he’d be a great President but he hasn’t really gotten any steam going. So why? My guess his ideas aren’t progressive enough. That is, they do t stand out enough to liberals like those of Bernie or Warren. I’d also guess he isn’t as seemingly passionate as them.

Some of His ideas also suck. He supported stop and frisk, a dead loser policy for African Americans. African Americans make up a significant part of the Democratic base. Alienating a big part of the base probably doesn’t do him favors.
He joined the party a little too late if he was trying to campaign as the moderate. It’s already crowded with Biden, Klobachar, and Mayor Pete.
I also think being a rich New Yorker reminds Democrats too much of a certain other person running for president.
ultimately, I wonder what could’ve been done as far as registering new voters if Steyer and Bloomberg had used their millions on those efforts rather than these vanity projects.
His gun control interview DQ'd him for me. If you want to champion a cause you kind of need to have basic knowledge about both your side of the issue and the other side of the issue. He displayed mind numbing ignorance of the other side of the issue.

That burden hasn’t been thrust upon them. They willingly took it on.
But to answer your question, yes society would be better off. Imo.
