Default Re: Democrats platform

RAISE INCOMES AND RESTORE ECONOMIC SECURITY FOR THE MIDDLE CLASS
Raising Workers’ Wages -- I disagree that raising the hourly wage is all that helpful. Instead I would like there to be a minimum daily wage. It can be $64, basically 8 times the minimum wage of $8. I think that would be much more helpful. Of course , there has to be a waiver for students and those that want to work part time.

Protecting and Expanding Social Security -- totally against expanding Social Security. This has turned out to be a piggy bank for politicians to rob.

CREATE GOOD-PAYING JOBS
Building 21st Century Infrastructure -- I would support government grants for the development of Fusion, but I doubt this is what they are talking about.

Creating Good-Paying Clean Energy Jobs
Pursuing Our Innovation Agenda: Science, Research, Education, and Technology


Reining in Wall Street and Fixing our Financial System -- really? Liars. If they were going to do this they would have kept Glass Steagall.

Making the Wealthy Pay Their Fair Share of Taxes -- the only way you do this is by making our tax a sales tax and eliminating all the other taxes. When you have thousand pages of tax code you encourage loopholes and high priced tax accountants gaming the system.

Promoting Trade That is Fair and Benefits American Workers -- So they are pro Trump.

Ending Systemic Racism -- By attacking those that are pro Israel? Seems hypocritical.

Closing the Racial Wealth Gap -- By claiming to be an American Indian to further your education and career? Again, your presidential candidate is a hypocrite.

Reforming our Criminal Justice System -- Require liability insurance for all gun owners. I would support that, but they have never mentioned this.

Fixing our Broken Immigration System -- really? They seem intent on keeping it broken.

PROTECT VOTING RIGHTS, FIX OUR CAMPAIGN FINANCE SYSTEM, AND RESTORE OUR DEMOCRACY -- I would support getting rid of the Electoral college. Haven't heard any suggestion about this.
