How many electoral college votes does California have versus Pennsylvania? If it went red, it could change a few things.

I can even agree with corporations being eliminated but not owned by the government. The government can also be corrupted by profits. And has over and over again in recent history.

I like everything about their platform except this;

cut the U.S. military budget by 90%, seize the 100 largest corporations

I just cannot get behind that. I could see breaking up monopolies, taxing medium and large corporations way more, but seizing, nah.

Or you're just not very smart. That is also a possibility.

Blue California is only in the largest cities, the rest is quite red and very Trumpy. Some areas are known hotbeds for righty radicals. Something could happen in California easily and there may even be more propensity because of the size of the population.

This isn't a union leader problem. On the contrary, quite a few unions are close to 50% conservative voters. The leaders recognize this and are representing their membership by not endorsing either candidate. Not a good thing in my opinion but a fact right now. The trades are often filled with folks who don't pay the most attention to politics even if it should matter to them. They hear tax cut and that motivates more than anything.

Isn't serving in the Israeli military required for certain age groups?

More efficient does not equate to cheaper for consumers, it just means more profits for the owners. A private company will always maximize those profits at the expense of the consumer. A public consortium has no need for profit and can spread costs evenly across all users based on usage.

First sentence is true. Last sentence is not. We'll see.
