Raising minimum wage? Infrastructure spending? Environmental protections? Regulating the banks and Wall Street? Passing universal healthcare? Protecting abortion rights?
LOL, FUCK NO! We're gonna piss away our political capital defending a religion that wants to take away all their rights we cherish and get shut out of office!

Bill Maher gets it, at least. And the extremist left goes after him for it.

I agree, for the most part. Some details I think need updating (such as a minimum income as opposed to minimum wage, which I may be able to be convinced on, as an example), but for the most part I agree.

I think the Fight for $15 is silly and arbitrary -- not everywhere needs $15/hr to live on, and it's just that message for the simplicity. But I guess that's politics, fits better on a bumper sticker than "I want the minimum wage indexed to inflation."
But the min. wage has lost value when adjusted for inflation over the decades, because for some stupid reason it isn't adjusted for that. I think they need to fix that, not set it to a specific higher number once.
