    The movement in the right direction was the single greatest increase in wealth inequality in history, resulting in today where wealth inequality is at its highest point in the last 3000 years?

    No, we are not healthier, no more prosperous.

      We are healthier and wealthier than if we had 40 years of Republicans. Much of the negative moves you are bitching about are under Reagan, Bush sr, Bush jr, and Trump.

        Nope, straight fucking line. Hell the 2008 financial crash was exclusively due to Clinton rolling back Republican signed into law regulations.

        Dems are not the brakes, they’re the good cop in good cop bad cop; and as we all know all cops are bastards.

          We have incompetent cop and psycho murderer cop. Wherein we can’t actually pick a good cop keeping psycho cop out is vital

            You misunderstand the metaphor, both cops are corrupt and trying to do you harm, one just pretends to be nice while doing it.
