Agreed. I don’t think it will go anywhere right now, but until politicians actually try to push this, it will never gain traction. With the number of voters that support it though, I’d like to think this can eventually be a winner for politicians…
People support such things, as e.g. gun control (90% of us including registered members of the NRA), but donors oppose them. Therefore I suspect we will see the donors chosen over their constituents, as has happened every time as of late 😢.
Even so, this particular battle must be fought - unlike e.g. the one with gun control where it is primarily the children of the poors that are being slaughtered (sorry, it’s upsetting but true) - bc this lies at the very foundation of this country, and to not fight it would be suicide for our little “experiment” (multiple hundreds of years going!) in democracy.
