47. it's all feel good fluff... there's nothing really there
1: Is anyone AGAINST affordable health care? The Right will just claim the market can do it best. So what are Dems proposing? Are Dems going to take on the health/insurance/pharmaceutical industries to bring us a single payer universal health?
2: What does it mean to give Americans the opportunity for higher ed? More community colleges? Paid tuition?
3: No one wants irresponsible SS reform. "Responsible" is a buzz word both sides claim.
4: I don't think the GOP wants this one. But what do the Dems propose? Revoking corporate personhood? Repealing NAFTA and GATT?
5: Of all the examples they can give... soy farmers? What about screw what the energy companies want... Dems will propose a Manhattan Project crash program for energy independence?
6: So what's their plan?
7: Sounds good. But what's their plan?
8: Equal rights? ROTF... You mean the Dems want to abolish all the anti-democratic provisions in the Constitution so every citizen has the right to a vote that does NOT weigh less than other citizens? How about moving to proportional representation so all citizens have an equal right to vote their conscience and receive representation. Didn't think so.
9: So what is their proposal?
10: Increase minimum wage? Why not INDEX the minimum wage so it retains it's current value... then try to make up for all the value lost over the years?
