Mr. Biden is articulating a simple, strong contrast: Republicans believe that collecting less money in taxes will catalyze economic growth; Bidenomics “is rooted in what’s always worked best for the country: investing in America and investing in Americans,” as the president put it in a November speech in Northfield, Minn.
It is an overdue end to an era in which the difference between the parties could be summarized as a debate about how large tax cuts should be.
Someone in this thread will inevitably talk about voting for Biden "even if he sucks" while he's doing exactly the things they want.
He is a leftist, criticising liberal* identity reductionism and its inability to recall that class is part of the intersectional framework it has co-opted and abused beyond all meaning.
Thanks for saving me the click on an article not worth reading.
In Arizona and Michigan, two states where the GOP presidential candidate will likely have to win a majority of suburban voters to get back in the White House, the state Republican parties are running critically short on money. In Arizona, the state GOP has just $14,800 left in the bank at the end of August, as reported by the Arizona Mirror.
$14,800 is an insanely low amount of money.
You can't win a contested small-time county election with $15k.
This is not what "consumer choice" means in this article, and per the article, the consolidation of retail choice at major retailers carves a spot for smaller businesses to offer the variety you're looking for.
In a sense, this is a damper on the thing you don't want - it's a slight nullification of the "Wal-Mart effect"
The reason we haven’t had a redo of the French revolution, despite having a more fucked up tax system and higher economic disparities, is because the massively rich wised up. They don’t go in public very much.
That's not why. It's because of 2 things.
1: the average person doesn't agree with you about murdering a bunch of people
2: mob rule is stupid and the French revolution gave rise to a literal emperor.
The silent majority very specifically is unengaged, and that's where swing voters come from.
It is a well-known (in political circles) electoral truth that all the money spent, all the speeches, and all the commercials, exist only to persuade about 7-8% of people that are otherwise totally disengaged and have no prior opinions.
This is how elections are won right now, for better or for worse.
