Unfortunately actually unfucking it is politically impossible without a unified and directioned house and senate.
And impossible with short sighted voters.
It takes time, decades, of diligent and thoughtful change to achieve. Voters can barely maintain the same ideas and expectations for 6 months.

Politics is performative. I'm tired of having to eat shit because some geriatric is pretending it's 1999. The conservatives understand this and it's why they get elected with track records of making us eat shit.

There isn't a "economy gooder" button on Biden's desk that he can press.
But there is an "I'm working on it" button on the press briefing room podium.
