    Why do they not want other people to have their basic needs met?

    I guess because it’s not profitable?

      It makes labor more expensive because people will be less desperate for wages.

      The more desperate someone is, the less they’re able to plan ahead and evaluate options.

      They’re focused on the short term and only plan to avoid short term negatives.

      The people who get irrationally upset when you ask for more out of the Dem party are great examples of that. They’re so stressed and afraid that everything becomes a binary choice of two options that can’t be I fluenced in any way

      It’s basic psychology and why Republicans went from Nixon resigning because he knew voters wouldn’t tolerate his illegal actions to modern day trumpets.

      The same thing will happen to the Dem party if we walk down the same path as the Republican party.

      And thats what the rich want.

      Its why WB bought CNN, their board members flat out said it.

        Refusing to vote (or making a worthless vote) isn’t the way forward.

        Ideally the Republicans are relegated to the trash bin and the Dem party splits into two, the Squad/Bernie party and the Clinton/Pelosi party.
