It’s hard to believe, but things are getting better. They will continue to if we keep up the fight | Robert Reich

Setbacks notwithstanding, we are better today than we were 50 years ago, 20 years ago, even a year ago

It was quite a year. Some of the regressive forces undermining our democracy, polluting our planet, widening inequality and stoking hatred have been pushed back.

This is a worthy accomplishment and cause for celebration. It offers hope that the Trump years are behind us and the hard work of building a decent society can resume.
