And I’m not going to deny they tried to do something good. But the student loan forgiveness program alone:

• Could have been fought harder. As soon as they were lightly told no, they stopped trying. Decorum was more important than reliving millions of Americans from billions of debt.
• Student loan debt not being removed from bankruptcy and tied to credit lines was cause by Biden. He wrote the bill. I am happy he can acknowledge his mistakes and try to correct them, but when you’re the reason for a bad thing, and do not try hard enough to make it go away, you are an enabler.

And the insulin price limit is good, but it was done with the stroke of a pen. Trump removed it with a stroke of a pen. If something that light can be done or taken away with a stroke, what more can be done? Where is the limit? Could Biden just nationalize the insulin production companies?

Small wins are important, but when I know of someone who is broke and getting insulin was literally a life or death situaion, sometimes selling small mementos and items to be able to just live without keeling over, the cap could have been 0.99 cents, or zero.

Incrementalism is a lofty goal when citizens are paycheck to paycheck, can barely afford a random expense, have nothing in savings, food and rent prices are going up, etc. etc. It makes people willing to ignore history and consider listening to a conman who enabling the worst of humanity.

When people are stressed and unsure what to do, they’ll be desperate. Sometimes its robbing a convenience store, sometimes its stealing from big retailers, sometimes its sometimes its voting for a fascist.
