Democrats Just Blocked Alexandria Ocasio-Cortezs Push For A Green New Deal Committee Article was too long to post (thanks GameFAQS) so I had to post snippets. Just a daily reminder that we're all screwed because even the democrats are willing to let the world burn if it lines their pockets with cash. --- END OF LINE ... Copied to Clipboard!

I'm really curious whether a significant shift of the DNC's political center to the left would be a net loss or net gain

She's gonna burn too hot at this rate and end up totally useless because nobody will want to work with her. Like it or not, if she wants her agenda to gain traction she kind of has to play the game. This whole "zero sum game" approach to policy just doesn't work in a large collaborative environment.

Of course you're not going to get the US to start looking for alternatives than fossil fuels. Big Oil has both the GOP and Dems in their back pockets.
Anything remotely comes along to reduce our dependence on fossil fuels lightens the wallets of Big Oil and that can't happen. Only way you're going to see any real change is by having elected officials that aren't bought and paid for. --- "Cyberspace is - or can be - a good, friendly and egalitarian place to meet." - Douglas Adams ...

I'm really curious whether a significant shift of the DNC's political center to the left would be a net loss or net gain There's a lot of popular support for more "left" policy like Medicare for All, and the center-right orientation of the Democratic Party hadn't led to a lot of success electorally, which culminated in the 2016 election season. Definitely a net gain, but I have some misgivings with the Democratic Party generally also think we can stand to move further left as well. --- "God I really want you to keep posting."

She's not wrong. Since our country determined large donations from corporations are protected free speech, we gotta deal with it. Ultimately both political parties are merely doing what the money tells them to.
