Good public schools can and should be the great equalizer. Economic systems also work best when meritocracy is promoted.

“Paris has embarked on a grand transformation, planting 155k trees, adding hundreds of kms of bike lanes, pedestrianising 300 school streets and banning cars from the banks of the Seine. Parking has been turned into green space…Fewer parents fear their child being run over when they walk to school.”

If and when the dems win bigly in the midterms, they should not rush to fix this shit. Give it another couple of years to fester.

Yea. Really. If you are not going to make drastic changes this time, why bother voting. Your country is currently so messed up. Get money out of campaigns, fix gerrymandering permanently removed, reduce executive power, and do something about the Supreme Court.
