The world only works with corporate ruled governance where CEO's and lobbyists write policy? Where enormous income and wealth disparity is the new normal? Where medical treatment should bankrupt a family into oblivion? That's downright f----d-up! But to roll over and accept the premise is even more f----d-up! There are nations that would disagree with you on this worldview, btw.
When your rebuttal relies on misrepresentation of what was said to you, you really had no rebuttal to begin with.
Obviously I want our health care system fixed like any other sane person. I never suggested rolling over and taking anything. You on the other hand, seem to think that if you follow Little Lizzie the magic rainbow unicorn fairy into Magic Fairy Tale Land, we'll have free health care, free college and free God knows what else, just because she's campaigning on it.
I just want things done in a way that have a chance of succeeding. Unfortunately, that takes time and effort because major change never comes fast or easy in the real world where I live.
And as for all that weeping about corporate power and money controlling policy, I have no idea what Lizzie fans are expecting out of a Warren Presidency, but wealth and power have gone hand in hand since the beginning of civilization. Aside from the wealthy, nobody likes it, but if you're telling me the magic rainbow unicorn fairy is going to waltz into the WH and somehow change human nature, you all are living farther out in fantasy land than I thought.
I want the best and most solid, stable, feet firmly on the ground leader possible, who knows how to work within the system we have, like it or not, as effectively as can be realistically expected, and who doesn't rely on flaky, grandiose visions to create false expectations that he/she will never be able to fulfill.
