1/ Imagine if we had a presidential candidate saying “Yep it’s true. We’re going to give you free healthcare. We’re going to pass a Green New Deal. We’re going to make college tuition free for everyone. We’re going to cancel all your college loans.”

2/ And when people asked “But how are we going to pay for all that?” the candidate would say “By taxing the segment of people whose tax cuts and corporate subsidies have amounted to the biggest transfer of wealth in our history over the last 40 years.”

3/ Call me whatever, but I cannot imagine that the American people would turn that down.

Yes but I dont like the GND. Its globalism. I can already see all the sacrifices to individual freedoms in the name of progressivism...2020 left idealogues..case in point. I love the environment, but not the methods

Oh, I wish we lived in that reality. I imagine there are many, well payed people working right now to undermine that America.

You'd be surprised.

The issue isn't the American people turning it down. It's the DNC refusing to adopt those winning platforms.

That’s because you are rich!
Replying to @marwilliamson
It would be an automatic victory. And they wouldn’t even have to say taxing rich people—the Federal Reserve has shown they just fucking create money at will so you wouldn’t even have to scare off the corporate misers. Who should pay taxes regardless.

Good luck making that happen. They will just leave. Youre not getting their money.
Replying to @marwilliamson
Just where do you think those wealthy people would go with their money? Seriously. You think they'd turn their wealth over like that? They'd grab their marbles & find a place to build. They build. They hire. They support millions of Americans with jobs. This is not a good plan.
