AFL is probably the shittiest major union to work with on anything when doing street level activism.

Jazerus posted:george mcgovern's loss destroyed the democratic party's belief that ambitious plans would win votes. the reagan & clinton eras solidified this and created a huge number of dems that fundamentally do not understand that flimsy defense of the status quo was not supposed to be a permanent plan but a temporary holding pattern to wait out the conservative wave. so, now, in a time when mcgovern would win handily, they don't understand that this is the moment for decisive reform, the swing of the pendulum back their way after 45 years that the mid-century dems could only hope would happen eventually the best take hands down

Lastgirl posted:Centrists should just stick to numbers crunching and tweaking policies and not public service because they'll never be able to capture the public space, like ever so they should just put a sock in it and only speak up when there's a budgetary flaw that can be remedied because they don't do vision, they do numbers. Without vision they just go in circles, like they have. They need to be restructured in the party where they aren't visionaries because they literally have none. nope, i was wrong this is solidly the best take

It's just that, dude.... the game is rigged, so all that hard work you're espousing to value? You're just being screwed over for it eventually, you just think you're untouchable now because of that unwavering dogmatic adherence to that, which granted you the perceived wealth and power afforded now because you were able to capitalize on it literally before the pie tray was nothing but crumbs and left over for the rest of the American people. But even the illusion is evaporating pretty fast in the face of blatant fascism.

holy poo poo south carolina going after purdue pharma for the opiod epidemic, something more states afflicted by the crisis should be doing. these fuckers are the ones that pushed the hell out of oxycotin in the 90s, spending tons on lobbying and advertising, lied about their product's risks, and treated it more like aspirin than the narcotic it is. http://abcnews.go.com/Health/wireStory/south-carolina-sues-drug-manufacturer-opioid-crisis-49230961 maybe if bad dems werent so busy sucking off the pharma lobbying teat they would have thought to do this years ago.

tbqh i still dont fully understand the reflexive hate centrists and dems in general have for SP/MCA reform. It alogns perfectly with stated platform goals (https://www.democrats.org), its hugely popular among the base, and yet democrats still do everything they can to quash its discussion and attempts to implement it (Vermont, Colorado, California). i know the simple answer is "$texasdonor" but god drat is it really that simple? are dems really that craven to engorge themselves on hilldawgs "public position private position" bullshit, like when gephardt let the kayfabe slip for a sec? dems have simply profoundly disappointed me with their utter lack of forward thi king on healthcare in this country. #1 reason why my litmus test for supporting a dem is "do you have a stated goal of enacting a single payer or medicare for all healthcare system?" if a dem answers "no" anymore, they can gently caress off into the trash bin ex post facho has issued a correction as of 20:17 on Aug 15, 2017 |

the pharmaceutical industry is THE biggest spender on lobbying in the united states and these fuckers have gotten away with murder the way they push narcotics onto the public. they incentivized doctors to prescribe their painkillers and got entire portions of the united states hooked on opiods, an incredibly difficult chemical compound to kick the habit of once you become addicted to it. dems and republicans are both complicit in this failure of government to stem the excesses of capitalism and outright blind greed. continue marginalizing people that are afflicted by this devastating epidemic, centrists, but this is a scourge that crosses all classe and race lines.

The FDA approved their single entity (i.e. not mixed with acetaminophen like percocet) with the caveat that it only be marketed and used for cancer and surgical pain management. Purdue immediately ignored the FDA, billed oxy as a miracle drug for pain and did their darnedest to minimized it's addictive potential. E.g.: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Er78Dj5hyeI From https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC2622774/ quote:From 1996 to 2001, Purdue conducted more than 40 national pain-management and speaker-training conferences at resorts in Florida, Arizona, and California. More than 5000 physicians, pharmacists, and nurses attended these all-expenses-paid symposia, where they were recruited and trained for Purdue's national speaker bureau.19(p22) It is well documented that this type of pharmaceutical company symposium influences physicians’ prescribing, even though the physicians who attend such symposia believe that such enticements do not alter their prescribing patterns.20
