worse. But I do think we are at a potential turning point … Biden’s Infrastructure Investment Act, student debt relief — such as it is and recent labor advances. The Democratic Party gets it (finally — been waiting 40 years for economic policy awakening myself) and so do more snd more of the voters. I think we will see power shifting more and more away from the oligarchs to mass organizations of economically average people . Maybe it’s wishful thinking on my part, but I see reason for optimism and tend to think not.
