I wish Biden would intensify efforts to raise the minimum wage, or intensify efforts to slow or stop housing scarcity, or intensify efforts to ban AR-15’s (which he could accomplish himself if he wanted), but no, he’s intensifying efforts to dump more of our money into another country’s war.
He (and more importantly, the republicans that keep blocking these) can do both
And they also do neither.
Incidentally the same people blocking the aid are generally the people blocking increases to minimum wage or gun bans. I don’t know if they’re the same people who mess with the housing market though.

This past week there have been a lot of “WHY DOESN’T AMERICA FOCUS ON ITS OWN ISSUES, UKRAINE BAD” commenters, presumably the Russian winter offensive has their bootlicking blood up.
It’s why the minimum wage has been 7 bucks for 15 years and our housing supply is being bought up by venture capitalists to generate an artificial scarcity, and the big priority isn’t our people, it’s finding excuses to dump more public money into another country’s war.
The people fixing to cause problems with those already have them. I for one would like the people for whom they intend to cause problems to be able to get some too.

The neglect of our own people never fucking ends.

A Democratic Senator introduced a bill that would stop hedge funds from buying and owning single family homes. But Republicans won’t pass it.
I’m past giving Democrats credit for writing bills.
They have the presidency and two years of a Congressional majority. We got conservative rule anyway, and they deserve credit for it.

Damn, the morons are really out in force this past week.
I’m genuinely confused as to what you mean by that.

It’s easier to call someone stupid than to self-reflect.
They’ve been out for 40 years.

So your argument is that Biden is playing 4D chess… got it.
Call me when he does something about housing scarcity, or the minimum wage, or AR-15’s, instead of just pretending to be powerless and doing nothing.
