Like, as an upper middle class person with student loans who's starting to feel an impact from the SALT deduction cap, I feel like the Democrats are doing a lot to try to buy my vote. But they do absolutely nothing for the working class worker, except to try to bully them into voting for them by talking about how bad Trump is. When they do propose something that is of economic benefit to the working class, it's invariably patronizing and asks people to rely on the government rather than giving them greater control over the means of production of their own sustenance. For instance, the Dems have made it clear they want "nonessential" workers to be collecting unemployment from the government instead of working. But meanwhile, they classify lawyers as essential workers and want to cut taxes for white collar workers who are able to work from home during the pandemic.

The Democrats need to repent for their abandonment of the working class and poor. At least for me, no amount of trying to buy my vote will suffice if they don't also make a good offer to people in greater need than me.
