I still say that is the real problem with Biden’s strategy. So many of the good things done then were long term improvements where we needed to stay the course. Then people got impatient and voted for the chaos we have now
And that’s going to be a huge problem win for the future. Just like American corporations who can no longer think or plan beyond the next quarter, American government can no longer think or plan beyond 2 years.
Our most needed fixes are long term, systemic fixes. Not just single payer healthcare, ubi, ssa, but all sorts of infrastructure (power generation and transmission, transportation, development, water, new technology, science, education). Everywhere I turn we seem to be building beyond what we can afford while having no plan to maintain what is there. We didn’t bring a ladder but keep digging this grave deeper thinking we’ll get out somehow
