Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-Vt.) on Wednesday introduced a bill to establish a standard four-day workweek in the United States without any reduction in pay. The bill, over a four-year period, would lowe…
I think it’s less useless government and more brainwashed citizens voting against their best interests. The useless government didn’t elect itself after all.
So you don’t think it’s possible? Have you tried to do something, and have come to that conclusion because no matter what you do, nothing seems to be changing?
I’m not focusing on you specifically, but why people say things are “impossible “ and then you ask what, if anything, they’ve done, people will say nothing (or won’t even vote!).
You don’t need to devote your life to something you want to change…an hour or two a week. Join an advocacy group. Go to a town hall meeting. Call your congressman. If time is something you really have ZERO of, then donate so that other people can spend more time working the change you want to see happen.
“It’s impossible to change anything, so I’m not even gonna try”. Again, not saying this is you. I hear this “argument” so friggin often. It’s like people try and subconsciously excuse their own inaction and apathy.
Needs support. Not just from congress but from voters contacting their elected representatives. Zoomers and Millenials can complain all they want about Congress being out of touch, but if you’re over 18 Then fucking vote, not just in presidential elections but midterms and local/state elections. The country isn’t going to change to fit what young dreamers want it to be if the only people who vote enmass are the older generations that want it to stay the same.
Love the idea. But like free college and free healthcare I’m thinking it’s just wishful thinking.
Amazing how so many people have been tricked into thinking these ideas are impossible. It’s really not crazy at all.
Oh I think it’s possible, but considering our useless government and the obstructionists we all know, utterly impossible.

Scotland: “Are we just wishful thinking?”
America: “We told you and the rest of your kingdom to fuck off and now we’re doing it the stupid way!”
Coming from Germany where both of this is normal it’s pretty crazy to me that this is seen as some kind of socialist utopia.
Admittedly there are a lot of problems in that country as well but the root of them is imo not in free education & healthcare.
