Stalin is part of the cause of it. Soviet agents were working hard to recruit bed wetters here and just because the USSR shit the bed, the efforts to destroy the #1enemy of the collectivist global elite did not stop. Communist bed wetters are devoted to our defeat, and their greatest vehicle to do so is the democrook criminal syndicate.
What a load!
You suggested they should be removed from this country and sold into slavery. How would that work? Who would decide which people should be removed and sold?
Are you going to scream Fraud! every time the voters kick your ass?

We can start by decriminalizing drug use and only making the selling of narcotics a felony-capital crime, subject to the death penalty. The war on drugs is a war on the American people, especially poor blacks, and whites.
Get rid of gross inequality. In the golden age of our economy, the highest tax rate was set at 93%. Between 1950 and 1980, the highest-paid CEOs in America got paid 30 to 40 times higher than the lowest-paid workers in their companies. Today Fortune 500 CEOs make up to 1000 times more than their lowest-paid workers:
"CEO C. McMillon, who earned $25.7 million in 2022, or 1,013 times the $25,335 median income of a Walmart employee. The world’s largest retailer, which was founded in 1945 and employs 2.1 million workers, has the lowest CEO-to-worker pay ratio of these 22 companies."

1/3rd of the American workforce between the 1950s and late 70s, was unionized.
One breadwinner in the family working a blue-collar job could support the whole family.
The United States was the manufacturing hub of the world, with the largest, best-paid, and happiest middle class. Americans had the highest standard of living, surpassing that of the Europeans and Japanese.
The American economy was based on production/manufacturing, hence we were more independent than ever, due to our ability to manufacture anything we needed, like for example, masks for our nurses or respirators for our citizens in the middle of a deadly, nationwide pandemic.
We could quickly manufacture whatever the country was in need of without begging China, India, or anyone else.
All of this changed in the 1980s, turning our economy from manufacturing to finance (wall street speculation) and low-paying service industries. The Republicans under Ronald Reagan, gutted our manufacturing base and lowered taxes on the wealthiest members of our society from 70% to 28%. They broke up all of the labor unions and regulated commerce to the point that workers could no longer effectively unionize, without placing their jobs in serious jeopardy.
We need to address the drug war, labor rights, cost of living, wages, restoring our manufacturing base, drug prices, healthcare, education, and homelessness. A robust social safety net for the working-class has to be established, which includes Social Security and Medicare (Medicaid should be replaced with universal Medicare). We should prioritize the value and importance of work and workers, over wealth and privilege.
The Pa. Republican controlled legislature forbids the counting of mail in votes until all of the polls were closed, including the west coast. Most of the mailed ballots came from the more populated areas.
