There is no reason in hell for that. In the 60's I made a minimum wage of $1.25hr. It was a living wage. I went to collage $5.00 for a student body card & books. I worked, went to school & had enough for a beer after. The great majority had enough to live on, & as AOC says should be able to go on vacation. That economy needed to be for all but as we see today the artificial barriers. Business made money, people made money, it promoted small business. Most everyone was getting a share.

@redsad

What we had was called the "Liberal Consensus". When congress worked for most all people. What AOC & Mandami , Biden/Harris are all trying to give us. Are we going to blow it off again?

This is not simply MAGA, it is what the GOP has been working toward since the 50's. Any Support for the Right will keep this bullshit that we have. I've watch it from the beginning. Absolute Control has been the GOP's agenda all along it why they aren't fighting for Us the People.

@A_Minion @redsad there has never been a time where Congress worked for all people. The GOP didn't act alone in removing our rights. Dems are accomplices. The structure of how power itself gets distributed is the problem, rather than the individuals running said structure.

@vex @redsad

Nope.Between WWII & 70's congress was in fact working for "we the people". That time is when most of what you see around you was created. We had the best public school in the world, a route to college that was affordable, the entirety of the Hwy system. I remember I5/99 as a 2 lane road. Airports. Minimum wage was $1.25hr a living wage. All done under what was called the "Liberal Consensus". We worked to get it for all people, abortion, women & minority rights, then came the GOP.

@A_Minion @vex @redsad I'm not sure that being forced into things can be called "working for we the people".
