Most people want to think they're in the center. But the second you dangle M4A, universal education, and the possibility of lower rents in front of them they love it. Not realizing that those aren't center positions.
Yeah, but for some reason a lot of people also don't want other people to benefit more than them, even if that person has a lot less than them. It's wild. Something, something, bootstraps.
