Look, change is slow. Especially so when dealing with government. The Democrat party is also split between centrists and progressives, and this divide will only grow as more and more young people start to vote. Those changes that we all want to see are also being hammered by a Republican controlled House. Nothing is going to get through there - Biden can groan and moan all he wants, but it won’t do anything. But it’s not like he’s not doing anything…
He’s not doing “nothing”. He’s working with what he’s got.
I mean. I get that there’s a lot of complaints, but to say he’s not doing anything is incorrect. I mean, sure, do I wish more progress was made? Yeah, but I’m not going to blame Biden for it. Now, if Biden had control of the House and Senate, and this shit still didn’t happen…oh yeah, I’d be feisty right now.
I love how you took all the criticisms I had and then just repeated them back at me as if they were justifications.
Like, oh wow, look at those extremely marginal, far-too-little-far-too-late incremental changes that do nothing to address the fundamentally broken parts of the healthcare system.
I didn’t say he wasn’t doing anything at all, I said he doesn’t push for what is actually needed. He has the bully pulpit, and he won’t use it. He won’t make executive orders that force the issue and make congress reply. He isn’t wielding power, he is just marking time, giving the bare minimum concessions to make gullible fools believe he’s worth their support, and then he’ll hand power right back to the fascists when it’s their turn again, as it inevitably will be.
Actual progress was always won by mass action. It was fought and bled for, and it doesn’t matter what kind of politician they are, they will kill to stop it because they depend on the political system for their power, and mass action threatens that system.

He’s trying to lower costs of healthcare and prescriptions.
He’s strengthened Medicare.
He actively prevent Medicare cuts by passing a Bill back in 2022.
