Democrats, make campaign finance reform your top campaign issue. Get money out of politics. Fix it. Get to where politicians don't spend so much of their work time fundraising, and more importantly to where the work done is in response to the people being represented.

They seek to divide us.

Remove all government waste slowing industrial hemp. Then bring investors to what was already growing 20% to 25% a year, and see it skyrocket, strengthening the economy & nation.

DNC made a mistake years back sandbagging Bernie's presidential bid. With both Trump victories he had the winds of being the candidate of change in his sails, vs status quo candidates by the Dems. The Dems ought to look inward with humility and adapt. Get money out of politics for one.

It is reasonable to be skeptical of the healthcare system - poor outcomes yey extraordinary cost, practice issues like the opioid epidemic, profiteering, etc. The people continue to hurt. Technology remains promising. It isn't just about funding & staffing. We need to make the system more effective.

We don't have to agree with each other or even trust each other to collaborate. We can argue and disagree vehemently and still find areas of common ground & shared interest.

An eagle with only one wing cannot fly.

Close the tax loopholes. Simplify the tax code. Make it so simple & airtight you can't maneuver around it. Sorry, no deductions. Can't hide in stock growth. Redirect tax intellect & effort to other issues. That'd reduce waste & help balance the budget without adding to the cuts.

Hey @bsky.app developers, how about more than just the heart icon for reacting to a post? Often folks are writing about negative world affairs, and the icon of love isn't a good fit.

I don't have to agree with you. You don't have to agree with me. Good thing too; we're probably both wrong.

Beware expectations, especially moral desserts. Beware virtuosity swindlers. Beware your ego. Careful, this could slow you way down. Beware inaction. Slow but steady is the way. Better aim, fewer mistakes - we need that with today's godlike technology. Slow is smooth, smooth is fast.
