And will consider them being implemented at the convention.
* single payer should be implemented over time all at once will cause culture shock to the system.
* yes the wealthy needs to pay more as do corporations but we need our corporations to perform well too.
* yes there must be a minimum wage increase but the cost of living is higher in urban areas and may need more and all of them may be incremental.
*sure strengthen social security and Medicare
* yes community college could be tax payer funded but not all at once.
* student loans shouldn’t be forgiven but the interest rates certainly should be capped at 3%.

We have to beware of culture shock and another right wing AstroTurf tea party BS uprising.

If I were to vote in a presidential
primary today, I would vote for:
Joe Biden
