Neither Medicare4All, free tuition at state colleges and universities, cancellation of college loan debt nor the Green New Deal are radical propositions. They are simply a realignment of public policy with an effort to help people thrive. What’s radical is the opposition to them.

Since the outcome of the primary, I feel that only you and Bernie Sanders came out with your integrity intact. Thank you for being you.

Marianne you're totally right. And probably why many are against it could be because it would even the playing field for POC. Let's get real. If POC had the opportunity for free higher education there wouldn't be that many of them in the prison system.

What is radical is the tax increases to pay for free programs & GND. How much should tax payers be required to pay in new taxes? What tax rate (total) should be acceptable to US taxpayers? 40% 50% 60% maybe 75%? That obviously does not include sales tax, property tax, fuel tax...

I like all these proposals. However, we need a sustainable plan to pay for them - which we don’t. Deficits matter, and we need to deal with that.

Socialism coupled with anti-2A and antisemitism reminds me of another political party who demanded complete submission “No nuance or discussion about making concessions. No middle ground or centrists allowed. Pure allegiance; far left only All others shall perish 32-33 Germany
