And he's an establishment Democratic Party guy, wannabe, sure, but he's a company boy. It's not like Lemieux is some sort of sparkling intellect, barely holding on to a post at a school nobody goes to if they have a better choice. Anywho, Lemieux, and the fellers like him, is always so dismissively sure that anything which is not a favorite of the rock-ribbed, establishment corporate Democrats is Never. Gonna. Happen. Ever. Well...Scott Lemieux is not a disinterested party. He's pushing an agenda first and an analysis second, just like so many others. Agreed. Stipulated. That doesn't change anything. When Lemieux dismisses the possibility of change--works for it, works against change--he does it because he desperately believes that position will benefit him. Which, actually, is fine. As long as everyone involved on all sides understands that shit, it's fine. Or at least, it's not gonna change.
The changes in health care and everything else require work and attention and plenty of hard stuff. Legit change will also depend on political engagement by way more Americans than participate now. If progress is Never. Gonna. Happen. Here. Ever. it's mostly because the Democrats fight against that change at every step. And the pissboys do everything they can to prevent that change on behalf of their masters.
