I have been thinking about recovering from the mess Trump and the GOP will leave us with

[edhopper]

I am tired of just digging out. I am tired of pushing back to where we were.

If we get back then both branches of Government in 2020, no half steps or small measures.

Go for it all, Universal Health Care, tax the rich at least at 50% over 10 million. End the Cap Gains break, raise the cap on SS and Medicare taxes, saving them.

True and effective Finacial regultion, a major Alt Energy effort. and more.

No compromises, no reaching across the isle only to be snapped at.

Go for it all!

1. It will take years to clean up his messes.

Just the environmental damage is almost incalculable.

3. The same with the Great Depression

but FDR used the opportunity for long term good.

4. But the economic turnaround after the depression was mostly the result

of military production on account of WWII - all of a sudden just about everybody who needed work was either in the military or had a job making military equipment. If it hadn't been for the war the recovery would have taken much longer.

2. The list of ills to handle is huge now, and we need to prepare.

Agree with all of the above, take no quarter. Plus, time to pack the courts.
