The good that will come out of this is any moderate will now fully realize their votes truly matter. If inflation ticks down by Nov, the Dems will do well.
If they follow through with this there will first be national unrest, protests, etc., that'll wreck any peace we have. It'll also divide the nation so aggressively that there won't be any "negotiations" on anything.
Next will be companies forced to act. That's again good for Dems. The largest, most profitable companies are almost all Dems. Their employees will force them to move from states that are banning things (could gay marriage be next? Of course, on and on). We already see most tech companies offering to pay for travel and moving.
Money will (as always, but now it'll be front stage, not behind the stage via lobbying) what controls the country and economy. The right are showing that they don't give a fuck about businesses nor people's own pocketbook or taxes (look at Florida). That's clearer and clearer and start to sway the younger folk as they do more stupid things.
Companies that don't stand up to this will be killed. Sure, there will be some nut jobs that motivate them to support them, but overall that won't last long.
I feel optimistic. I probably won't tomorrow.
This is a sign of what will come:
- I need an edit button, dammit.formed
- Was thinking something similar, there could be brain drain and exodus of companies from red states depending on how far they go.yuekit
- The ruling is insane on any rational level, makes the USA look terrible, creates a major domestic crisis during a war, probably hurts red states.yuekit
