Stop fear-mongering, it's not a good look. That's a Republican thing.

(42,641 posts)Voters in general support many progressive policies. It is our job as Democrats to make this point whenever we can. The media cannot be allowed to promote the meme that progressive policies are too extreme when it is the far right policies that are too extreme and dangerous.

I find some undoable, a few big ones unneeded reinventions, and many far too costly both financially and politically at a time when the existing social safety net is threatened and most social programs and services vastly underfunded.
I have more to say, but cant because RW talking points. It is on the bus or off the bus with many progressives, mainstream liberals STFU.
Maybe you meant DU-ers should. Democrats are a diverse group of voters, with the majority moderate and the minority self-identifying as progressive.
No, voters in general do not support M4All when they discover they must give up employer or retirement benefits-provided affordable and high-quality insurance. Not when they are informed taxes might be raised, as Bernie has honestly admitted, or when given other options to universal health-care.
Sorry, I would rather expand mandated coverage of suboxone and talk therapy throughout all states than dump 200 billion dollars into the opiate crisis, not when rehab in the very states affected consists mainly of bible thumping, 30 day rehabs run by evangelical peer addicts. Id like to see us more effectively address our number 1 drug problem, alcohol addiction.
Etc.
I am finding the pressure to support and never dare criticize particular policy proposals quite UN Democratic. I support all of Bidensthat makes me a disloyal party member?

(8,144 posts)policy description as an RW talking point which could be used to talk about ANY existing services or programs Americans expect nowand all of our candidates who all propose ways to improve and strengthen our society, help the most vulnerable, or solve common health and welfare issues.
Thank you for your comment, Turin_C3PO.

(13,909 posts)And yes, thats why Im opposed to using the freebie talking point, because Repubs accuse all Democrats of bribing voters. I dont agree with all of Warrens policies and think some are too expensive but I do hope, if Biden wins, that some of her ideas get put into the Dem platform.
Thanks for your comment also, I always enjoy your posts.
