Every time something hopeful like this appears I start wondering if it’s safe to imagine that maybe things could get better here in the US. But so far I’ve been disappointed over and over. Part of me wants to just skip over the “maybe something good will happen” part and get right to the “oh, well, looks like he was assassinated by a blackwater hit squad” part. Money is power. The donor class gets what they want. And I have no faith that working within the electoral system will fix that.
