Population essentially doesn't matter - people are talking about density here. For example, Phoenix is essentially an enormous suburb with giant malls, and you never hear of despite its population numbers. Boston is a small city with rich urban life that occupies an outsize role in the American psyche.

We are on the right side of history - progress always is. People like me are much more trustworthy because we're not motivated by greed, but for the desire for a better world.

We must defund and destroy not just ICE but the paramilitary system that it is a part of (FBI/DHS/etc).

The idea of Federal police acting in states is unconstitutional on the face of it - especially paramilitary organizations like DHS/ICE

Going to need a source - most corruption is corporate, unions represent Labor and thus don't have a corruption incentive (only Capital does)

None of this is true - we must defund the military, reallocate the spending to true social equality and social reprogramming.

Philly is a very poor city though, modest increases in COL hit hard.
