Well sure. Some people have faith that Democrats will bring about a great welfare and regulatory state, when instead they're abandoning us to our doom because it pays better.
Obama put it well: "Don't complain, vote!" That's not just in the general elections. "They" can't abandon you to anything if there's more of you than them.
Obama's a smug sonofabitch. People voted for him in masses and masses, and he accelerated oil and gas drilling, and pursued policies that made banks whole while dramatically increasing economic inequality and extending the recession for people at the bottom of the heap. Those are not things his voters outside the top 1% voted for, and they contributed materially to Trump's win.
As I've said, vote for whomever you want: just support socialism while you're out and about. I agree with you that voting locally is essential. But "they," meaning Democrats, are captives. You can vote for them all you want and they're never going to do as you wish — especially with people trotting around yelling "vote blue no matter who" — until they're afraid of you. For now, they do want money wants and they don't do what money doesn't want.
Comparative health benefit here: I was scheduled for hip replacement surgery 3 weeks after applying. My health insurance approved one night in the hospital. A friend had the same surgery in a different hospital. She was sent home the same day. Danish friends say it takes 3 years to get approval. A Canadian friend said it took her a year for app, but they kept her for 5 days after the surgery. Some comfort for the ailing would be oh so nice.
And, I’m choking over Liz and the Lettuce! I thought her speech the other day was kind of a falling turnip. Pls keep ‘em coming.
I see that faith is not limited to religious beliefs.

Sometimes, as football teams discover, you gotta play defense.

I wonder what happened in Denmark? Pre-Covid, they were among the best in Europe for wait times.
I wonder too. If I find out, I’ll speak up.
