The Problem Solvers are going to be much of a thing anymore.

We are a fractured country - and the base of the Democratic Party wants blood. We are still.pragmatic - but that happens after the regime falls, their leaders appear before tribunals, and they are imprisoned.

An abundance platform comes AFTER punishment. We aren't going back to the status quo. That means,1 person, 1 vote, mandatory voting, and an expanded House and SCOTUS.

In that environment, we can have abundance.

Sirota doesn't think as revolutionary as the base needs. Same promises about rising tides lifting all boats. That's always been a load of horseshit to Black Americans.

We aren't having another 1865-1965. This time - we want our pound of flesh for 400 years of a shit sandwich in AmeriKKKa.
