7. We are so close to a breakthrough. US is demographically liberal, progressive, Democratic.

As Democrats get elected to positions of power, there need to be progressive changes to ensure democracy.

If that is done, the US, Canada, and the world will be freer and happier. The country and the nations will be more powerful, more productive, better able to combat and shut down the murderous dictators like Xi and Putin.

80 school girls were poisoned in Afghanistan recently. Following similar poisonings in Iran. Reich Wing nations are really shitty places to live. DeSantis, Pence, the rump and the rest want to make the US a shitty Reich Wing nation and they have started with the stolen Justices and Florida.


Wealth and income inequality is holding the nation back and distorting the political process. Tax the rich and reduce the deficit.

Restore rights for women and people of colour and oppressed sexual minorities.

Get it together folks.

We don't want to go backwards and we don't want to "take back" any mythological country.

We want to and will go forward.
