My point is not that reform is impossible, it's incredibly to difficult to pass and in the cases which it does, it's achievements are rolled back. I'm not "underselling" them by stating the simple fact that these institutions have either been completely neutered if not put on life support.
With power increasingly concentrated in a handful of political actors, reforms have rarely been so easy to implement. It just happens that the intensions of current leadership is bad, so the policy we get sucks.
"Just so happens" lol. So again, incredibly hard to pass.
Social Security and Medicare are as robust as they’ve ever been.
