All talk. I have yet to see a single politician actually give the people what they want. She had 4 years to do it, and crickets.
Idk what she's done, or even can do as VP, but Joe's helped get some good legislation passed, negotiated drug prices and I think he passed some gun control? Those seem like things some people want, although you might have a specific people in mind that I'm not aware of.
That’s just distraction legislation, not what people truly need. This has been happening since the early days of the election process, but none of these measures address the real needs of the public because it’s all political theater. The actual control lies elsewhere (i.e. global elite). I’ve been aware of this for decades, but only recently have others started to see it too.
Do you know who these global elite are and how exactly they exert their control? My conspiracy theory alarm bells are goin off lol. Also how does lowering prescription drug prices not address some "real need" of some portion of the public? Not to mention the infrastructure bill which put a ton of money towards renewable energy, which is a step towards stopping global warming... You may argue these steps aren't proportional to what actually needs to be done, but looking pragmatically its kinda hard to do really good stuff when half the country (and thus half the legislature) is whipped into a populist fervor, which you seem to also support given the main thing populists hate are the elite!)
for realsies this time? is anyone really expecting this to happen? is this really news?
i mean come fucking on.
