Oh, and isn't it very interesting that while the Cullinary Worker's Union leadership spoke against medicare for all, the vast majority of union members voted for Bernie over any other candidate? I wonder why that is... The answer is that the union's leadership no longer represents the union members like they should. That union needs reformation. I know of this sort of thing. There is a similar problem with Oklahoma's teacher's union making unilateral decisions that don't reflect the majority of teachers here.
This is why we are so "extreme" ABF. Debtor's prisons are back through a legal looophole, over medical costs people can't pay.
The progressives are not extreme leftists, they're literally just trying to get us on track with every OTHER developed country out there. There is no room for compromise, not any more. We're taking the kid's gloves off.

The truth is that while people like Bloomberg absolutely refuse to even consider having a representative of his own employees on his board, that's what compromise looks like! A soviet socialist would have required a government appointed commissar on his board to approve all decisions. Putting an employee representative, duly elected BY those employees, is the fair middle ground option.
And then there's this:

Which is basically the end of the line for me. This is the ultimate motivator for me, and if it isn't for someone else, what can I say?

"On two occasions, I have been asked [by members of Parliament], 'Pray, Mr. Babbage, if you put into the machine wrong figures, will the right answers come out?' I am not able to rightly apprehend the kind of confusion of ideas that could provoke such a question." ~ Charles Babbage (1791-1871)
