It& #39;d be interesting to poll people across the American political spectrum about the frequency of terrorist attacks, police-involved shootings, and interracial violence, so we can compare those things to what we know are the biggest threats to life in the U.S.

But very few liberal activists show up and join anyone doing it. https://www.wusa9.com/article/news/crime/2-dead-teen-injured-in-overnight-shooting-in-northeast-dc/65-47bda867-a4b7-4b90-869c-5ca569e1d409">https://www.wusa9.com/article/n...
Corporations have pledged billions of dollars in the past few months to a variety of contemporary causes but if that money was spent on universal health care I think it would be enough to overwhelm the health care industry and finally achieve it, but it& #39;s not spent on that.
