    One party fought tooth and nail to get cheaper healthcare for the vulnerable. I was one of them in my 20s. That same party regularly votes in favor of the middle and lower classes and doesn’t take our rights away. Reduces prescription drug prices. Bans medical debt from showing up on credit reports. Forgives student loans.

    Americans chose to give total power to the party that does the opposite.

    Not. The. Same.

    We can have a better future and inch towards things like universal healthcare by electing the only party that can be influenced. We’re actively choosing not to.

      Didn’t say they were the same, I said that we have no control over what they do in our names

      Rather, the parties and their owners control us as they have for generations, by owning the newsmedia and steering public opinion as they see fit.
