    Like you said income and wealth inequality is a complicated topic, the link I posted has several graphs and statistics, and from looking around most studies show wealth inequality is getting worse. It’s not entirely the Dems fault, I’m saying they’re not doing enough to oppose the Republicans and that having an competitor like the Green party start to grow in support would push the Dems to do more about it

      Sounds great. I like the idea. How can I help the Greens become a more serious contender in the future?

      Also, how does risking Trump winning the general election in November assist in that effort in any way?

        Bare minimum vote for them and get your friends and family involved in politics as well. I’m doing that as well as donating and doing social media outreach.

        Because we need momentum, we get 5% this year, maybe 10% in 2028. If we instead vote for Dems we will gain nothing.
