Poll after reliable poll indicate that Americans in large numbers wanted a single-payer health plan and a return to the progressive tax structure of at least the 90s, and even the 50s, where the mega-rich paid much more. They also want business regulated for the protection of citizens against environmental and economic mischief.

However, the Republicans are aggressively pursuing voter suppression and purging the voter roles of likely non-Repub voters, and even machine-hacking. Actual voting fraud be "the left" is miniscule and waaay over-stated; voter suppression by "the right" is huge and actual. Therefore, what voters say they want will likely not happen. And even if Obama is somehow reelected and Congress is Dem, what have they done along these lines, anyway?
