    The US Supreme Court and its decisions

    It's good. It's like someone is actually trying to do something instead of sitting around saying "well, the Supreme Court is against us and several of its members are blatantly corrupt. There's nothing to be done." It tells people that something can be done, if the Democrats are given enough power.

    Biden-Harris / Dems

    We live in a capitalist dystopia

    Similar things have been said in NZ. One politician actually said "nobody wants house prices to fall." Investments usually come with risk, but because the people who are in charge of things tend to be property investors and want to eliminate the risk, the people who actually just want a house to...

    I guess at least it's nice they got one debate in before one of the candidates goes to prison and has to attend future debates via Zoom. Also nice to see there are still parts of the US media with some perspective...
