Can we handle this crisis under trickle down, reality denying, Republican ideology?

We moved away from the New Deal, Democratic ideology 40 years ago. That was a big mistake.

Another big mistake we made over the past 40 years is, we let our manufacturing base move overseas. We used to make everything here. Now we have to rely on other countries for many of the products we need.

Those making 75,000 and below for single and 150,000 for married only get checks. Rich deal on your own for a change.
