Which of these unfinished BBB priorities should Democrats NOT prioritize?

These are things that the Biden Administration actually tried to do, which only failed due to Manchin/Sinema and a united GOP caucus in the Senate:
* minimum wage hike
* paid leave
* more on reigning in pharmaceutical companies (IRA could only apply to Medicare to get around 60-vote cloture)
* more on reigning in health insurance companies (like how they originally hoped to force Medicare to offer dental/vision/hearing too) -- and there's the evergreen hope for a public option
* more support to childcare & caregivers
* more support for PreK, community colleges, and other school programming
* lift the cap for Social Security, and increase its benefits

I wonder why so many voted minimum wage and social security... those seem like no-brainers right now, and be popular for folks most hit by inflation (working people and seniors).
