Establishment politics that forced individuals to buy shitty expensive insurance to pay for bloated healthcare costs? Cool that it reduced the uninsured rate but there were no campaigns from the Dems to actually reduce then uninsured rate any further after it had peaked. Still leaving 21 million in danger of going financially bankrupt if they get sick (plus the people with insurance who get sick but will still go bankrupt because they have done fuck all to address health care costs themselves)
Establishment politics that has failed time and time again at regime changes in foreign counties, by either putting in dipshit leaders of their choosing or completely fucking it up and leaving it destabilized to the point that rogue militias can hold decent power over the people.
Establishment politics that increasingly cut funding to public schools at all levels. Completely cutting pell grants and subsidized loans for graduate studies under Obama. Increasing the number of public charter schools that typically fail students with disabilities and leave the public schools strapped for cash to support them properly themselves.
Establishment politics that has expanded the military industrial complex with every president and has overseen the expansion of the surveillance state since 9/11. An expansion of the militarization of local police departments that carry out biased justice.
