discuss what issues are underreported on, and try to refrain from generic ones like poverty as a whole. While important, I want to understand what you feel is an underrated topic that needs moe light?

Dark skies and light pollution - incredibly niche and understandably low on the priority list, but something I'm also personally very passionate about.

Machine taxes. Automation is generally good but you need to protect older displaced workers who are not in a position to retrain or relocate.

It's a 538 map not just a 303 map because 30 percent t of the electoral is poor

That's why waves don't happen at the beginning of the campaign we have more states that represent blk population than RS

I listened to that Hardball 2008 and the Economy everyone lost that yr on the R side except McConnell and he only survive because it was the Bush W party not the Trump party

We have OH, MT and WV up for grabs Lean D and MO as a tossup and TX as an outside chance depends when our nominee gets well known.

The R party support tax cuts, Trump says futuristic cars and travel but he wasted 4 yrs on a tax cut for the rich which push Corporate taxes to 20 percent no one is fooled not one thing in CPAC talks about NAACP which Bush W and McCain and Colin Powell and Condi Rice went to starting with Romney they vacated that Rs

They don't go to NAACP not one thing that they talk about reparations or urban poverty that's why Docugate didn't last long with Biden it was a minor scandal because people are suffering all RS did was take away UBI payments and blocked child tax credits they used unanimous consent and wouldn't allow a simple vote on it

Old School still to this day doesnt know why Romney lost you need D votes BECAUSE of 303 map not R votes the R party after McCain stopped going to NAACP

Partly photography, partly that I'm annoyed I didn't get to see the comet last month even on a clear night, mostly just star gazing as a hobby, but I'm also genuinely sad when I hear stories about people calling 911 because they saw the Milky Way for the first time during a blackout and think it's a smoke trail or something. Like, I just love a clear, dark, night sky (I've been known to walk into things because I'm just constantly staring upwards while I walk at night), and I wish that was an experience I could share with more people in more places.

Sidenote: one of my favorite pictures I've ever taken just happened to be of the night sky taken from near a city center. And since I'll never have another excuse to share it:
