      Minnesota recently used their tax on billionaires to expand education and provide free lunch to children so while the party isn’t perfect they are not at all comparable.

      What makes them so similar is first pass the post it guarantees a two party system and the practice of your gerrymandering creating safe seats. The worst Democrats are the ones with the safest seats. If you want positive change start there.

        We’re talking about trying to pass legislation in the name of “think of the children” logic. KOSA is a fairly recent one that is from the dems.

      You’re mostly correct, but Dems are not left in any political paradigm with the slightest awareness of the existence of non-American countries.
