Why do we fight the wrong battles? This ‘reform’ debacle needs to be trashcanned. We won’t win the option fight and, more importantly, it is not WORTH winning. It wouldn’t establish anything beyond the fact that we can ALWAYS be fooled by some last minute fake bone, and nowadays they don’t even bother with that. They just offer us the possibility that we COULD have a last minute fake bone, which they deny anyway.
The Democratic Party is bound and determined to garotte itself with this ‘reform’. We should be putting our energy into our movement, into moving past the Dems.
We MUST stop carrying the ball for them, especially when it’s whatever slimy ball they thrust into our hands and say ‘carry this’…
