"Democrats Need a Better Affordability Agenda"

So I guess "abundance" didn't catch on?
Well, "abundance," "affordability"...I don't so much see how either is a policy...unless they are implemented by e.g. lowering taxes and reducing regulation...which I don't see the Dems doing. They're likely to get rid of tariffs...because Trump... But otherwise...what?
   Well, as the authors say: they probably think subsidies, price controls, and all that shit will do it...but I don't. Currently, anyway.
   The authors suggest restraining debt (not a Dem priority since The Big Dog was in town) which I'm for, and zoning reform (which I'm against, but is sane). Some other stuff. Better than rent control and upping the minimum wage... The former is stupid and the latter a mixed bag at the very best.
   BUT: we can't do this whole have-a-nation thing without a sane Democrat party. And almost, like, literally, like, anything would be better than Woketarianism. Jeez, soft socialism would probably be better than Woketarianism. I'd rather they switched their attention to economic matters...even if they're wrong about them.
   I'm not asking them to agree with me...I'm asking them to be sane.
   So that we at least have to think about which party to vote for.
