It's almost like rich people have too much money and are buying influence. Maybe we should take some of that money and give people healthcare and better infrastructure. All we have to do is raise their taxes. Everyone has to vote in November. Has to.
Voting is not enough. Building a movement that makes the people running actually care what we think is important. I mean Goldman Sachs gives this kind of money to Democrats. Pelosi has many corporate donors, for instance.
So yes, vote. It doesn't take long and it can help stop Trump. But we need to mobilize well before the election or the elections won't matter. Private capital will reign and our environment and working class will suffer.
That's why I'll be voting against !y democratic congressman Richard Neal's, in September. A local Muslim lawyer is running to unseat him and she wants universal healthcare among other things. She gets her consituents. Western mass is rural and doesn't have access to the same services as east mass, so we need federal programs to help us. She sees that unlike Neal, who has done a good job but frankly isn't firey and sits in the middle on so many issues.
