Democratic Primaries
Related: About this forumOkay Democrats we can do this.. lets roll back the tax cut that Trump gave the wealthy..
or take the life time cut away from them and they have to live with the 10 years.. (now 8) that the rest of us do!
This is where we start. We have to clean up the mess that Trump has made.
We desperately need infrastructure. Our country is literally falling apart at the pavement and bridges. We need monies to repair the nation, and that also gives good paying jobs to the working man and woman.. from blue collar to middle class.
We have to reset the Environmental laws that are being dismantled to protect our environment and health.
And while we do this, we need to shore up laws that protect us from wall street crooks.. and there are those out there.
Lets get Obama care back on its feet, from the tearing down the right has done on it.
Lets raise the SS taxes to the first million. that is going to keep Medicare, Medicaid (which covers the poor and aged who cannot pay the 20 % deductible not covered by medicare) and Social Security solvent for decades.
So many things are doable, if we make good choices. If we throw all our energy and financing into only one or two of the headaches that the Republicans are going to leave us, the other oozing sores in our economy will come back to haunt us.
Don't get me wrong, I wish like hell we could do what some want. But first we have to shore up the entire economy. Not just a favorite few things that make big headlines.
