#Deregulation, and #UnionBusting do not appeal to me. I will not be voting for these #Democrats either. If we have #abundance then #billionaires can pay their taxes, and #corporations can adhere to #regulations
> #Democrat.s are embracing the #abundanceMovement, which promises to rein in Big #Government, Big #Labor and other #leftWing staples, saying they impede #housing, public transit and #greenenergy projects
The #AbundanceMovement: "#EzraKlein is one of the few regular New York Times opinion columnists, and when he publishes new columns people pay attention. He also hosts a podcast, The #EzraKleinShow, that at writing sits at #11 on Apple Podcasts’ rankings. Derek writes for The Atlantic and hosts his own podcast, #PlainEnglish, for the Ringer. Both men have made appearances on a number of other podcasts, from Bill Simmons to Gavin Newsom and Richard Hanania. As a result, the book is #2 on the Times’ list of bestselling nonfiction books, also placing high on Amazon’s rankings. Given how concerned many left-of-center people are about the next few years, #Abundance and its proposals will be key in the coming debates."

"…#Democrats’ unrequited pursuit of #bipartisanship can lead them to undermine their legislative initiatives. But the [#broadbandpolicy] story #EzraKlein shared absolutely doesn’t support the thrust of #Abundance or the themes of the wider #Abundancemovement.
In fact, the takeaway from the broadband tale is that the biggest obstacles to efficiency and abundance are often #corporatepower and its #corruptinginfluence on our politics — factors typically downplayed or unmentioned in the Abundance Discourse."
