@STLChrisH@chamath Agree 100% ed has not kept up with training youth for modern careers. But while coll costs R absurd, lib arts is still legit. Lawyers, teachers, comms just to name a few need it. Liberal arts isn’t “liberal” — it’s a foundational wholistic education providing broad knowledge.
@bearsfanrockies @Holden_Culotta FWD Party stands for systemic reforms to reduce the grip the duopoly has on the system. Dems lean into compassion and Yang has always been about compassionate leadership. His plans differed from Dems in that he is also highly pragmatic emphasizing benchmarks & efficiency
@RepDeanPhillips now hailed as prophetic on conservative media for pressing the Dems for a primary. @AndrewYang and @Fwd_Party urged Dems to listen. Maybe now we can rally behind common sense and build an alternative to the archaic two party system.
@TheRichFromCali Absolutely. And, he should preemptively pardon Liz Cheney, himself and everyone on Trump's hit list for any possible crimes (they did not commit but will be charged for). Self preservation.
@AndrewYang Maybe the biggest mistake was using reproductive rights. Measures all across the country were passed to protect such rights and women didn't need Kamala for that.
Those who know what I’m talking about have a range of emotions right now, but missions are bigger than any one person and we can’t let bad actors tarnish a good cause.
People keep secrets. They hide what they know is wrong and even criminal. If we fault everyone who trusted people who are later revealed as despicable, we create vilains out of good people. « Fool me once, shame on YOU. »
Sometimes clues seem clear in hindsight but let’s not throw everyone in proximity under the bus. In the era of hyper public responses, saying nothing can simply mean it hurts too much to respond.
#methane is extremely dangerous for our planet. Pilot programs in #Connecticut have shown how residents can reduce food waste by a third. @ctlcv is working to elect responsible leaders to improve our state's environment.

Another reason why "left-right" politics fails us. When everyone comes to the table, innovators want to find the (most lucrative) path. If responsible can meet profit, we all win.

@dbodybalancer Why should we just be led by a rope to a race we don't want? Yang and Phillips are just reminding us that voters have the right to have a say. As is Nikki Haley on the right. I commend them all for standing up for voters who otherwise are just servants of the DNC and RNC.
A system that benefits from watering down civic responsibility with signs like “Vote Row A,” is indicative of a shift in values from representation to partisanship. RCV can reverse that trend.

Wise or reckless, Biden’s de facto nomination is a “threat to democracy” as @deanbphillips noted -- especially because our current system erodes cognitive engagement essential for both our workforce AND our democratic system.
