I’m agnostic.
Bernie has explained his religion by saying, “When other people hurt, I hurt.” I like that religion.
Well it hurts to watch socialists talk about raising wages in a society/economy where people already drive and shop too much, and the resulting development is deforesting the land and preventing it from being reforested.
It hurts to watch socialists pretend like the answer to a spoiled consumerist society is to make more money spoil more people, in the name of equality.
Just as it hurts to watch your beloved children stomp and cry during temper tantrums because they are spoiled and stubbornly opposed to seeing what's good for them, it hurts to see people like Biden, Sanders, Warren, and AOC stubbornly pursue socialism.
When are the Democrats going to see that austerity, discipline, and transportation/infrastructure downsizing reforms are better solutions for poverty than pumping more money through the economy?
When are they going to see that giving people more purchasing power, to spend money that will stimulate more business and land-development is bad for the environment and sustainability and no amount of windmills or solar panels or electric cars are going to cause land-use and infrastructure to reform?
They have to see the big picture, but they can't because they have to appease the short-sighted visions of prosperity that their base currently holds.
