    Democrats constantly complain about government control. Defund the police ring a bell? How about all the wars over school district control? Or wasting money on the military?

    Just because you lean towards moving power and resources from private to public sector doesn’t mean you always always agree with the public sector.

    If I support NASA does that mean I agree with every decision ever made by the Fed?

      Look what I wrote:

      I feel like the Democrat takes never acknowledge the negatives of state control (at least unless it’s something Republican-associated)

      Wouldn’t really say “defund the police” was a mainstream Dem thing though, they mostly distanced themselves from it.
