[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The left does. Most of us are making personal choices that reflect that.

It's just we are trying to make sure democracy actually survives right now,.which seems to be the most pressing concern. [/quote]

If your air and water are poisoned there is little you can do with "personal choices".  Even if you grow your own food.  Vast majority buy some sort of prepared food, not many cook from scratch or are very picky about reading the list of ingredients or buying organic (which is out of reach for many people anyway).  Your kids can eat anything they want when you aren't there, smth you also cannot control.  There is a need for regulations and honesty for sure, personal choices only take you this far. [/quote]

You don't sound very well informed pp.

Republicans wish to rear down all regulatory government and let the corporations do what they want.

Democrats want to keep regulations going so we can regulate what's in the environment.

And Democrats also want to keep democracy and the Republic going as well as the regulations to prevent the running of the environment.

Can't have a clean environment if you don't have regulations and regulators, can't have those if you don't have democracy.

In the meantime, while Democrats fight Republicans to keep toxic substances out of the environment, as well as uphold democracy, I also like to make my own better choices.
