      Given that establishment Democrats are actively working with Republicans to prevent progressives from winning primaries, I’d say you’re overly optimistic.

      It’s only in our future if we take it by force.

        People are already dying a whole lot, and a whole lot more are needlessly suffering. And even more are struggling financially to handle the burdens of our health care system.

        It’s already ugly.
