We need more discussion of issues!

In this election, we have an unusually articulate candidate who can and is discussing a lot of important issues, and guess what, the powers that be are desperate to prevent him from being heard. I think we're seeing huge amounts of energy being put into creating static and chatter but its easy to make things better, just contribute content and thoughts about issues, not non-issues. We know a lot about Sanders but practically nothing about Hillary and key issues.

Does hillary have any master list of position papers on issues?

i would like to know her stance on things like the global push to privatize and commoditize education. Des she think education should be seen as a tradable commodity? (and not as a public good for the community)

Ive been told this and that but next to nothing about her stance on important issues like privatization of public services, for example. How about water privatization?

What I know ive had to go looking for myself.

What is her stance on progressive liberalisation generally?
