Hes outlawed collective bargaining, put it into law that oil and gas must get more land than any renewable energy, accerating climate change with a trillion dollars for more roads and cars. Low wage earners? Never in American history have they been ignored for longer than under Biden. His promise to fix the flaw in the affordable care act that makes sure millions of the lowest earners specifically can recieve no medical coverage? Not even written into a bill to be considered in the first place. Inflation has ran ahead and left people like me behind, my life is worse now than when he first took office.
He's been president for three years.
To what is this even referring?

Please post a source indicating any sort of mandate that oil and gas "must get more land".

right, but it's been going on for much longer than that, it's just more egregious the longer that is, so now its most egregious under him. Also, no plan to address this in his future as far as he's said, and he wont even work on stuff he has said he would
this is him outlawing collective bargaining. here
And the portion of the Infrastructure Bill requiring Oil and Gas get first dibs on any federal land being leased, go here and ctrl+f for sec. 50265 " ENSURING ENERGY SECURITY" where they outline how at a minimum, tens of millions of acres of federal land has to be auctioned to oil and gas first.

But hey... If you earn less than the poverty line, your life is marginally better. Or something like that.
Honestly the union bust on the railroad ensured I'll throw away my vote on a 3rd party. I can't vote for him again and keep any moral standing at all.
It's almost as bad as voting for Trump. Almost... And I'm not playing to pick the best of two complete losers.
Have you looked into how those railroad union negotiations ended up, or did you tune out as soon as you had a reason to hold a forever grudge?
You need to keep up with the times old man. Look again at the railroad agreement.
Democrats are just looking out for different rich people.
Bernie losing the nomination twice solidifies this.
