decent chance to attend college, decent health care, decent election financing and a decent democracy that works for all.

It would be nice if the FBI was decent, too, and held the rich and powerful to the same account as us peons. But we're not asking for the Moon. It would be good to just go back to the decency we once had in this country, of opportunity for all. That we need fairies and unicorns to get it is a measure of how bad things have become for most people. But you wouldn't be worried about that, would you? You trust in the Reagan-Clinton "trickle down" fairy.
