Do you have something more recent that 1939?

smile do you? do you see the problem with the fact you need to go back that far to find anything that helps American’s that you think I’ll accept.

I don't need to. I see lots of things, including the ACA, that helped working Americans. However, you say that doesn't by your measure. So I'm asking you to give an example of your measure to better understand your point of view. Thats how we learn about each other's views when they aren't apparent.

The list I mentioned above isn’t some unattainable goal.

So it sounds like you're saying nothing has been passed in the USA in the last 85 years since FDR's New Deal that qualifies for your measure of "helping working Americans".

many countries already have accomplished these things for their people.

Okay, thank you. That informs me of your position. I appreciate the time you've taken to share your views.
