In reply to the discussion: A shout out to "social issues" [View all]sadoldgirl
(3,431 posts)it might be better to separate the social issues some of us
are talking about from those, which are somewhat costly.
It does not cost much to support reproductive rights, nor
does support for marriage equality or voting rights. Support of prosecution
of hate crimes does not require a lot.
Free education including at the Universities, however,
are not one of those, neither is research, and certainly
not the environment.
As far as regulations of Wall Street and investment of
infrastructure are concerned you really deal with a lot
of money and will mostly find nice speeches and no
more about it.
Please, tell me how much it will cost any candidate
to support the 14th amendment or women's rights?
As soon as real money is concerned and issues, which
envolve the larger economic system there will be
resistance from TPTB.
