re: #75 EPR-radar

Another thing I’d like to see is the Democratic party take more aggressive positions on economic issues. The status quo is a plutocracy combined with a chronic over-supply of labor and attrition of union power/influence. Small tweaks to this aren’t going to get it done, politically.

The last couple of decades have seen Democrats become the party of social issues, mainly minorities and women’s rights (you know, 60+% of the country). They need to, but can they keep a message that large simple and clean? Can the average person parse that we need to improve the economic lives of everyone together, or it won’t work, and that includes ending discrimination and providing proper women’s health access?
