Senator Sanders is an avid capitalist, and America ain’t Venezuela.
The American presidency is for the temporary administration of our self-governance. Our future is up to us –- not the president. Ideas are what matters.
• Insisting that the wealthy and large corporations pay their fair share in taxes.
• Increasing the federal minimum wage from $7.25 to $15 an hour by 2020. No one who works 40 hours a week should be living in poverty.
•Breaking up huge financial institutions so that they are no longer too big to fail.
• Putting at least 13 million Americans to work by investing $1 trillion over five years towards rebuilding our crumbling roads, bridges, railways, airports, public transit systems, ports, dams, wastewater plants, and other infrastructure needs.
• Reversing trade policies like NAFTA, CAFTA, and PNTR with China that have driven down wages and caused the loss of millions of jobs.
• Creating 1 million jobs for disadvantaged young Americans by investing $5.5 billion in a youth jobs program.
• Fighting for pay equity by signing the Paycheck Fairness Act into law. It is an outrage that women earn just 78 cents for every dollar a man earns.
