    Obamacare, the multiple times in 2016, 2020, and 2024 when they were deciding on a platform and universal healthcare never made the cut. They’ve had plenty of opportunities to push it and they never do.

      That’s because you’re political system is broken by lobbying. Fix that and you might start to see both parties make decisions for the people instead of the corporation’s and billionaires that give them both insane amounts of money. Money they need to stay elected.

        There’s the two sides of the Democratic party. AOC (pictured) supports fixing that. Yet the DNC keeps nominating moderates who refuse to give more power to the working class.

        That’s right, except without lobby both parties disappear instantly. My guess is social media ‘heroes’ would quickly take their place, same way it’s already happening in central and south america.
