    Increasing capital gains tax is progressive regardless of how much.

    Abortion/marijuana are definitely left of center in 2024, especially in red states.

    Erasing medical debt is progressive regardless of what you wanted instead.

    and she doesn’t get credit for supporting Medicare for All when she abandoned that position in the middle of the 2019/2020 primary

    This is the mindset responsible for our lack of progress as a nation.

      Reducing the proposed capital gains tax from 44% to 28% and abandoning Medicare for All for medical debt easement are objective metrics that show the Democrats becoming less progressive in 2024. If you want to delude yourself into thinking the opposite is true, i can’t stop you, but I’m bored of proving you wrong.
