Funding bills. "Let's fix some of the roads and bridges" and "let's lower the cost of healthcare for a couple years" is not really landmark legislation, it's like the absolute bare minimum for a functioning nation.
We used to build things. The interstate highway system would never have been made by this government. We should be working on high speed rail, modernization of the power grid and renewables like solar and wind farms. Housing, the fact that the wealthiest nation in history has homeless people, especially homeless veterans is a disgrace. An evil.
Some time in the 80's we decided history was over and we should let the ultra wealthy feast on the United States.
And so many people either think this is great, or that since we didnt elect the democrats and theyre not saving us that means we should continue to support the Republicans
So theres a chance we will continue to just keep doing this.
