      TBH nowadays I don’t think the US Federal government would ever give a single concession as they are now. Probably would rather roll in the military than make medication a bit cheaper.

        Well yea that was the goal of all those concessions , to keep the working class pacified while they consolidated power towards the owning class. Now they have consolidated that power and dismantled the foundations which bred the resistance efforts of the past and are comfortable in their assumptions they can now freely abuse the people without the need to make concessions.

        We have reached the point that they were warning would come about by accepting these concessions as if they were progress.
