If we were we would have had universal health care, equal rights, etc 50 years ago! No woman president, no women crafting the healthcare bills, people of color getting killed and the police who did it get a pat on the back, healthcare and college for the rich, etc. This country sucks!!!! Reagan and Fux News were the beginning of the end.
Yes, I am mad as hell and should be. ALL true patriots should be...but hell no, half do not even vote!
