People ask what a politics of love looks like. It's not mysterious; you make your top priorities feeding the hungry, helping the poor, educating the children & striving to wage peace. Naive you say? What's naive is to think we'll last another 100 years on this planet if we do not

Repeal 2017 $2T tax cut, put back middle-class cut, cut corp subsidies, reduce military spending, 3% tax on billionaires, 2% on 500M+, giving us the money to increase funding for humanitarian & educational purposes. Dept of children & youth, Dept of Peace, reverse climate change.

Further the corporate subsidies R low cost fuel oil for the poor. Then cutting green industry subsidies. Or stupid stuff like R&D tax credits. Again counter productive.

Or you are thinking a wealth tax. Which would create a push to make illiquid assets onto the market. Again, unworkable and will crash valuations.

High tax rate was slow growth & deficit skyrocketed. So, not sure what that does for anyone. Creates more poverty. Did that under Obama. Why repeat stupidity?

Climate change is unproven and likely fraudulent. They have never produced an accurate model,,change methods to make data fit theory or worse unscientific methods w/o explaining past FAILURE. Total snake oil.

Dept of peace? That is nice in a fantasy land where people are a violent mess. Talk to Chinese folk? They still want to punish Japan for WW2. Plus China is a Nazi power.

We already have DHS at state levels, we have dept of education..all a mess. You think more govt employees will fix anything? Try to get them to accomplish something positive, on time & reasonable cost.

You want to help, you mean well, but, the plan is just bad.
Replying to @marwilliamson
What would reversing climate change look like? Also, Elizabeth Warren’s 3% tax hike on the rich is going to pay for some pretty impressive policies that would help the poor and middle class while redressing historical racism and driving the economy. What’s your plan?
Any chance jobs can solve most of what you want to give away.
Well hell, why don't we just give you ALL of what we produce and put the collars on our own necks? #democratplantation
