The virus continues and while we have vaccines that are effective it will take awhile to get enough vaccinated. The need to protect yourself continues. Still it is more hopeful than it was just a month ago.
We have a lot of things that are starting to improve but we don't have bipartisan legislation. We may never have it. Does that mean we should stop. Of course not.
Health Care and Climate are things we need to deal with. While it would be good if everyone could get on board finding a solution, for those who only want to set up roadblocks because the solutions effect change that might hurt a donor, we need to move anyways.
Similar to the fight about smoking, the country will adapt. .Planning for a future where less people are covered or more fossil fuels are burnt is not good for the country. Will some people be hurt? Possibly.. It doesn't mean we don't fight for the common good.
We need a society that burns and releases less and less carbon to help the planet. We already are at a stage where some sever consequences are inevitable. We can't keep making it worse.
Similarly someone who needs medical attention should get it without fear of life destroying debt or unaffordable medications. We need the 100% solution and it will actually be cheaper than what we do now.
Policies that really only favor the 1% are no longer acceptable. The Government represents all the people.
