The US economy works for the rich and corporations. Biden promised that nothing is going to change.
What's your solution?

No solution if corporatists keep getting elected.

Unemployment was at record lows in the 3's after eight years of Obama/Biden and you're primary concern is Biden won't do much for American workers?
And income inequality keeps growing, wages are not keeping up with inflation, mandatory Old Testament is still legal, and young Americans don't have the same opportunities. If things were so great how come a lot of Obama supporters voted for Trump?

DT seems to also have an underlying fear of being drafted into a war. He's said things over the years that suggest he liked Trump over Hillary due to this issue alone.

He's also misogynistic. He reacts negatively, sometimes subtly and sometimes overtly, to the idea of having a woman President
I would join space force.

I will vote for Biden if he picks Nina Turner.

Trump's neglect on Covid gave DT a few weeks off. I doubt it's a particularly concerning issue to him.

Keep it simple. And know he isn't going to change his mind.
A lot of personal attacks and you are misrepresenting my views. I was the only one here in the politics section concerned about a pandemic before it happened, no one else cared.

I have to ask myself whether this guy is an idiot or a troll
Presidents don't have control over the unemployment rate. Obama and Trump take too much credit, it is all politics stupid. Read

You know the best way to show I'm misrepresenting your views? Clarify your views and where I have it wrong. But let's be real. You liked Yang because of UBI, and you are against Biden because you don't think his election will flip the script enough for you to have the life you believe you deserve. Right? And what does"flipping the script" look like? Free money, college, and healthcare. Maybe A.I. doing all the work while government gives everyone a check because there is no more work to do but people need to spend money on stuff.

Yes, but I really don't ask for much. I work and I am a responsible tax payer. I don't think mandatory Old Testament should be legal unless it for a really good reason.

I supported Sanders mostly because of his foreign policy. I am not for free college, but I do think it needs to get more a lot more affordable and it shouldn't be unnecessarily hard because it really doesn't do much to prepare you for a real job according to one study.

I understand nothing is free, but income inequality really needs to stop growing.
