      The material reality to Americans is that they can get an abortion in California and not Florida because of party control. They have paid sick leave in Minnesota but not Texas for the same reason.

      I’m talking about their material reality because the post is about domestic U.S. politics.

        But the material condition in the US was also that state employees had a pay increase in Florida. So they also see that. If we are pointing at the tiny minuscule things that the Dems do for the working class, we can also find the tiny minuscule things that the Republicans do

          Yeah and if you count up all the material things each party does for Americans, Democrats come out ahead. You don’t have to walk sixth graders through stuff like this.
