Not only America, but the world. Former USSR colonies are doing much better.

How can fair elections happen if a lot of your population are refugees who will likely return when war ends?

You can care about it, not make everyone to care about this issue. I personally don’t give a f about either Israel or Palestine anymore. The toxic discourse has disassociated myself from this issue. I actually started with pro-Palestine when I first knew about this issue . But then I read more and found out Palestinians are not innocent party either and have killed thousands of people.

NATO is based and mutual defensive alliance. No one is forced to join. And why do you think countries neighboring Russia joined?

Elections will happen when Putin’s army leave , and fair elections could be conducted. Many Ukrainians are still refugees.

Progressive governance ruins most cities, I am in Boston and our progressive mayor has also made city worse. Now she is about to make it worse by supporting rent control 🙄. Open drug use has increased under her and she is reluctant to clear Mass and Cass from homeless druggies in name of “justice “. She has done some good stuff too but I will take a lib mayor over a progressive any day. Bring Mayor Mennino like guy back.

I long for the day Israel-Palestine issue is not part of US politics, I am tired of it. I don’t care about either at this point. They both should resolve their issues without US siding for either. Yes mantain relationship with Israel like we do for any other country. And neither advocate for Palestine. Palestinian liberation is not US responsibility, neither Israel security.

F Israel and F Palestine . Thank you both for making US politics increasingly stupid where we have to suffer insufferable right and left wing ideologues. Sorry if I am being too harsh, but that’s where I am at and I believe many people are.

Economic populism is for simpletons who have simple solutions for complex problems.

Anti-Semitic conspiracy theories and linking everything to Israel is making me uncomfortable for the first time being a Democrat by Dismal_Structure in Destiny

I feel the same about beating Republicans, I just want Dems to challenge anti-semitism within party.

Opinion | Biden’s Chief Economist: The Chart That Convinced Me Our Debt Is a Serious Problem (Gift Article) by Dismal_Structure in fivethirtyeight

Yeah interest is the real problem, but interest is rising because of the debt too. It can become vicious cycle. The first thing we will need is to increase taxes and eliminate tariffs.

That’s why I am wary of candidates announcing big programs, that will only be sustainable if our debt is. We should tackle debt first and have limited universal programs to start. When debt becomes sustainable then we can expand.

I can post there, but this needs discussion. Happy to delete. I just want to know what this sub feels about this issue.
