    America’s “left” is pretty middle of the road if you compare the US to other first world nations.

    Things like free affordable / free university education, universal healthcare, consumer protection, and decent unemployment insurance are not controversial elsewhere. But in the US the right wing claims these boring ass ideas, that the rest of the modern world has embraced, are radical.

    If left wing idea were hot sauces, the GOP would think mayo was the Last Dab on Hot Ones.
