The reason the Democratic establishment is taking so long to unify with the rest of the left is because they don't actually represent the ideals or policy positions of the left. They want to continue to court their corporate donors while pretending to represent the left. That's why congresspeople like Pelosi and Schumer continue to give lip service to progressive positions like universal healthcare while still not fully committing to supporting it.
Pretty much this.

Living wage laws, taxing the rich, free higher education, universal healthcare are all sensible and wildly popular.

Why won't Democratic Party officials adopt them?

FOLLOW THE MONEY.


Concerning free higher education. Could you describe how you would incentivize people to pay for and participate in this ?

If people didn't wish to participate would you force them to anyway? In that case wouldn't it be better to term it indoctrination?

So, you want ala carte taxes, eh, dumbfuck?

No. I want peace. Peace and freedom are interrelated. Taxes are an example of trying to use violent means to achieve an ostensibly "good" result. Which is a contradiction, since the means and the ends are inseparable.

Only intelligent people want higher education. You wouldn't understand.

Because Men's Rights, right, you sniveling little coward?

Thank gawd your ilk does not really hold sway over the progressive movement. You only think you do. All you do is whine and put-off potential allies who eventually get tired of hearing your idiotic moaning and move on.

Fuck off. YOU are not the progressive left, shithead.
This is angry, nonsensical and divisive without any benefit at all.

I'll listen to logical arguments. This utterly fails to qualify.

Wait a minute, I'm high, I'm clearly intelligent and coincidentally I'm "educated". What makes you think comprehension is the issue here ?


I'm not opposed to education. I'm questioning your "plan" of how you intend to deliver it. Maybe you should question it too, as it is rife with fail.

You aren't educated because your arguments have no rational basis- and never have. This also argues against your contention that you're intelligent.

If free higher education is so impossible, how can other developed nations offer it, even to non citizens?

Same argument as universal health care.

This country has chosen to subsidize multinational corporations and billionaires, which is why we can't afford to invest in our citizens. This is unsustainable and will come to an end soon, one way or another.

Nice rant. Does it come with Kale ? White guys with dread locks and a signed Bernie poster?
