It's dead because Republicans fucked over the youth in favor of corporate profits. Nixon, Reagan, Bush1-2, Trump all fucked this nation with corporate tax breaks, while cutting security nets and programs that help young Americans.

So no, this isn't a both sides problem, this is one side having corporate overlords.

To clarify I didn't say the Dems were as bad as Repubs in that regard. They never are, and of course, as you said the huge leaps "forward" were all made by Republican presidents. But I stand by what I said that the rich being unaccountable and having too much influence over policy is a bipartisan value. One of few. It's not going to go away no matter how much the Republican party disintegrates. That's why the theory is that if the GOP ever disappears, the Democrats would split into the establishment and progressive.
