    United States Biden administration policies and actions - megathread

    I am aggressively disinterested in abortion one way or the other. Still, if one was to consider the political ramifications of such a move for those who do care, now would be a pretty good time to take the controversial step of overturning Roe vs. Wade. A year before a midterm election which...

    I realize this may be controversial here, but I am perfectly fine with antifa and BLM voting for whoever they like, just as I am fine with literal "Gas the jews" white nationalists voting. I am not fine with them committing violent actions, but that is an entirely different matter. I mean, for...

This would technically leave the few...

    Now we're arguing that 2018 was cheated as well? How far back does it go? Shall we argue that 2012 was cheated, or 2008, or 2006, or 1996? How far back does the cheating rabbit hole go, anyhow?

    All of them are generally bad policies. The check is the least bad, though that's more "It's not awful under the circumstances, but the fact that we aren't talking of the far superior methods of using that money is because the middle class wants to extract its pound of flesh and politicians...
