I am starting to notice a disturbing pattern of Democrats only enacting progressive legislation to deal with a short term crisis, while not pushing for permanent changes such as reforms to UI, healthcare, UBI, and many other measures that are sorely needed.
They establish their cred on short term legislation that will disappear by September, and do nothing on long term structural changes.
The 2008 Financial crisis and now it is COVID -19. Some powerful force brings them into power to use their faux progressive image to bring in a quick measure that will vanish after the crisis disappears. Than once everything settles down, the Republicans come back into power.
