    Shameless attempt at approval bump but I'll take it. I'm just glad they didn't decide to criminalize even harder given the 180 on immigration and appalling Israel policy:

    States approved nearly 300 bills affecting policing in wake of George Floyd’s murder

    https://cnsmaryland.org/2022/10/28/...ing-policing-in-wake-of-george-floyds-murder/

    The minimum wage has increased

    There are more free state colleges today @ https://www.usnews.com/education/best-colleges/paying-for-college/slideshows/tuition-free-colleges

    Military Academies and most ROTC programs at state universities offer "tuition free" education under the theme of "scholarships" if you're willing to serve your country. ​

    More businesses offering tuition payback programs for their employees

    Yep, he promised to raise taxes on the rich but there are not enough rich people @ https://www.cato.org/blog/bidens-math-just-taxing-rich-doesnt-add

    Medicare for all will only work in a social welfare society (see Canada, France as an example). I'm not sure why that's considered to be a promise when the United States doesn't have a society for such....new social healthcare system that's 100% funded by the government. Simply, Biden wants it but knows it's not possible to use the stupid plan by Bernie Sanders.

    In reality, the Affordable Care Act (ACA), commonly referred to as Obamacare, would also be replaced by Medicare for All. In my opinion, Obamacare is the best thing the United States can get. Also, as someone who does not pay for medical services using the VA medical system whenever I'm traveling in the United States...that's as good as it's going to get.

    The United States' best opportunity for free medical healthcare was missed during the Civil Rights Movement and Vietnam years.

    Supreme Court - Had he expanded the SC...the Republicans would counter and do the same. It's a precedent that both political parties do not want to start doing. Thus, the current system of waiting for a justice to DIE or retire to then replace the justice seems to be what both parties want to do without trying to expand it to make the SC too political.

    I do remember when Biden said, "I'm not a fan of packing the Supreme Court".

    Who do you think "encouraged" +100 businesses to offer tuition payback programs to employees that were not in existence under the Trump presidency ???

    :rolleyes:

    Disagree...can not work in the United States regardless Sanders belief it can because the healthcare system in the United States is forever "capitalism" and have some of the most powerful lobbyists in Washington...stronger than the NRA and we see how that's going :D :vomit: :banghead:

    guns forever...mass shootings forever...AK weapons forever

    No matter how wrong and fucked up our healthcare system is...it can not be fixed. The cost of our VA healthcare system is a requirement (needed to aid a ready military) and can not be duplicated in the civilian society...far too costly.

    The government just can not duplicate the healthcare coverage for civilians like veterans/active soldiers have with the VA... it would be astronomical civilian costs above the cost of the VA.
