Both sides are not the same. Republicans are the ones who don't want to help the workers and lower/middle class. Tax the rich and the big business. Make public college free, make healthcare free, make child care free. How? Tax the rich and big businesses. They have hoarded all the money we generated for them. (They are using it to create space ships for fun and buying up EVERYTHING). If they want to do business in the USA tax them. Stop voting for republicans, they don't care about our democracy. Get more liberal justices on the supreme court to fix what republicans have done to our rights. Money shouldn't be speech and corporations are not people.
I'm sure that Republicans right now are trying to stop student debt relief, again. Stop voting for them. They have no policies to help the workers. Only tax cuts for the rich and hate, i.e. woke, i.e. minorites, LGBT, women, non Christains, and diversity.
Remind me cuz I seem to have forgotten which party recently busted up a union strike, which one refused to repeal Trump's tax cuts for the wealthy, and worked directly with McConnell to make the bush tax cuts for the wealthy permanent, who was the one that forced for profit health care system on us and then mandated everyone participate? Which one was it? That should have gone through the higher education act to eliminate student debt but followed a route that was destined to fail? Which one is it that is now overfunding cops to the extent of pushing and funding cop city in Atlanta, to further subjugate minority communities, which party passed a far overreaching crime bill that specifically targeted black males, and the for-profit prison system that he's used to house them in? Which party had the crime bill that was so restrictive that it went too far for even Reagan, and he had to insert it into the violence against women act so people would not vote against it, which party was that?
I blame the party, they are the ones in control, or in most cases, not in control. They are shit for governing while blaming everyone but themselves for incompetence.

Do you see a trend now? All these things were done without the controlled opposition republicans
Reposting for posterity, apparently the mods are prone to removing legitimate conversation and discussion because bad words hurt their fefe's. +20 / -2 at time of removal.
Yeah, I see a trend of ignorance and stupidity in your posts, you ignore the why and the how and the intent and the hurdles. You look at a result and ignore everything about how it got there because you're too stupid to think beyond one layer of complexity.
Like the union strike that was broken for capitalist ideals, not progressive ideals, but Biden still negotiated and got the workers demands from the rail companies. But you ignore that. And every other item you listed has just as much if not more context that your braindead troglodyte mentally deficient self can't comprehend because you've been poisoned by lack of education, lack of nutrition, and lack of social support, so you grew up functionally retarded. **
The only ignorance here are the fools that can't see their party and its leaders are incompetent. And that you support right-wing policies and legislators
No, no, see, we should just roll over and take all that with our asses up because they'll maybe try and throw a measly attempt at giving us back federal abortion rights and student loan forgiveness, maybe. And they can't do anything but give up if the Republicans slap any of that down. "oh well, we tried! But now we're busy starting proxy wars and throwing our young men and women into decade-long wars, so stfu and take what we give you and be thankful for it."
"Oh,it's election time? No, no, don't withhold your vote from us, if you do that, abortion will be federally banned this time around, probably! Listen, we'll do you a solid and attempt to throw another half-assed bill at the Republicans. Yeah, they'll slap it down, and no, we won't push back or anything, we'll be too busy funding more wars that we don't call wars, but, you know, at least we're better than them. So be a good little removed and roll over and stick your ass up.
What should the Democrats do? Pass legislation with 48/100 senate votes (first two years) or without control of the house (now)? Pass things unconstitutionally via executive order and hope that the ideologicaly opposed supreme court allows their illegal action to slide? Should they tear the whole thing down and install a dictatorship like Trump wants to do?
Start holding individual representatives accountable for their actions and votes. Not one republican was willing to cross party lines to put their country first, yet people like you blame the politicians who tried to help and either withhold the votes they need to get stuff done or outright give their votes to the party whose platform is literally to harm us.
