[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]PP here...adding...The US is the only developed country with a two-party political system, and I believe this has destroyed our great democracy.[/quote]

Completely disagree. [b]The two party system forces both sides closer to the center than they otherwise would [/b]and avoids the chaos we see in governments like France, where odd bedfellows (even communists) come together to govern without people voting on it. [/quote]

Really?  So why are the Dems in trouble? How did Trump win the last election? Because the Dems resisted/refused to side closer to the center - creating an imbalance!! It's not rocket science. [/quote]

The dems are in trouble because they didn’t govern from the center. Biden was elected as a moderate who would “return us to normalcy” but swung wildly left once in office. His current attempts to backtrack like with his border executive actions are too little too late for many swing state voters. [/quote]
Oh, tell us how Trump and the GOP governed from the center. The Democrats do govern from the center, it’s just that the GOP left the center so far behind that they can’t see anyone but their own extremists. “Mandate,” they cry, rolling over the majority opinion.[/quote]

It was Biden that wanted people fired for being unvaccinated, in private companies.  He went through with it for government workers.  And many who were fired were blacks who voted for Biden.
No worries.  He's delayed his ban on menthol cigarettes until after the election to try not to lose more of their votes.[/quote]

Baloney.  There was no mandate or order from Biden for companies to fire unvaccinated workers.  And I think the only people who got the axe in government were a small number of people in the military where refusing vaccinations makes them unfit for deployment - and they have ALWAYS required various vaccinations for deployment, depending on the location and type of deployment, for example yellow fever or anthrax and so on.[/quote]

There was, passed by OSHA.  The Supreme Court vacated it.  And that was just Biden.  The state Dems did a lot too.  Vaccine passports to go to a restaurant in New York. [/quote]
