I know the democrats won't do either but people like Will Stancil (a rando) make me laugh. There's a legion of centrists who self-identify as progressive because they know how many people hate centrists.

    Stancil showed me there's an entire class of "progressive" dorks who live in a wishful thinking fantasyland of unicorns, puppies, kittens, and permanent sunshine. He knows his plan even in perfect theoretical situation would take a ridiculous number of years to work. Yet he still pretends it's a winning plan for 2024 for Biden and the dems.

        Later...

        "Hey - the dems control congress and the presidency. How about raising the federal minimum wage to be a livable wage?"

        "We don't have the votes."

        Then later than that...

        "Hey, the dems now have a greater majority than last time and they also control the presidency - how about now?"

        "We don't have enough votes."

        Much later...

        "Hey, the dems control congress by a widest margin this century and the dems control the presidency again - how about now?"

        "There are other priorities on the agenda that must be addressed first."
