3. Are We Just Going To Throw These Folks A Lifeline When This Is Over?

Are the Democrats just going to forgive and forget the red areas when they've done just about everything to sabotage our entire system?

While we'll never probably get a super majority in all 3 branches of government, in all honesty nether have the Republicans and they've seemed to bully and push their advantage way beyond their mandate. Dems never seem to be willing to just say damn the torpedoes, full steam ahead!

We really need to put in safeguards to limit damage these psychopaths keep doing to everyone just because of spite. If red states don't want tax supported programs then who am I to force them to participate? Make federal money available by match. That way areas that want services, good roads, adequate public schools can have them if they're willing to contribute to them. Those that don't, can wallow in the cesspool they've created.
