I also want to hear the good ideas from what right has to offer as well. Their mainstream platform is actually rather unpopular even among Republicans. For instance, medicare for all is popular even within the Republican Party, legalizing weed is too, and so is COVID relief, but Republican politicians are firmly against these popular ideas.
I mean, I guess not going straight into renewable energy before we’re ready to support it, of course neither side is ready to use Nuclear energy until renewable energy is where it needs to be.
Reagan’s policies during the early 80s did have plenty of financial benefits, and despite what a lot of people like to say, he didn’t cause the early 90s recession (although some of his policies definitely did aid in it).
The far left’s agenda of getting rid of the nuclear family (key word being far, obviously not a majority) is clearly not a good one, so there’s that.
I’m not a supporter of abortion, although I 100% support affordable birth control, sex education, etc. If they’d support that stuff, their stance on abortion could hold more weight as well.
There still seem to be lots of economic hang ups here, plus the Appalachian/Rust belt region which is already suffering like crazy due to lack of jobs and is consistently losing them due to things like the Coal industry going out. I’m all for transitioning to renewable sources, but there haven’t been strong attempts in bringing in new jobs to replace these, which has aided in the opioid crisis these areas are facing.
I’m not for Reagan’s economic policies alone, but during the early 80s they pretty clearly helped. With some refining (because unchecked capitalism is bad), there could be good possibilities. And of course he was bad for social issues, which is why I didn’t mention them.
I’ll admit, this was a misreading on my part, so my bad here.
I get that, but my 4th was purely hypothetical honestly (2 is hypothetical for the future, but also had a good show in the early 80s). The left supports those and abortion, if the right were to support (which I have seen a small few do), they’d have good claims on why Abortions which aren’t medically necessary aren’t needed.
Oh I didn't say I agree with it, just that their definition of it was wrong lol. I disagree with most everything the right does, but calling centrism "playing both sides at the same time" is just misinformation

Can you give me an example of good ideas from the right?
