minus-squareKerred@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up2arrow-down12·1 year agoI am just going to guess no one will make that happen for another 150 years, but it’s a nice dream isn’t it. But my rationality is if you start with a long term plan for universal health and education, debt relief would follow suit. I am just confused why debt relief is headlined and no long term solutions, as if the culture wants to hide long term solutions.
