What I want

I want a world where everyone in the world has the opportunity to succeed in life, where the only barrier is themselves. I understand this is a long way to go, but there are specific policies we can do to improve lives around the world.

Social policy

  • Reinstate work visas for low-income work.
  • End private prisons.
  • Protect LGBT rights.
  • Black Lives Matter. Defund the police.
  • Legalize abortion (jfc I’m so angry I have to write this down)

Economic policy

  • Debt-free college
  • Nationalize the railways
  • Reduce consolidation of big businesses. If a big bank fails, divide them up, don’t just give all of their assets to one other bigger bank, making that bank even larger.
  • It needs to be easy to start a business.
  • Reduce regulations that make building new rail in this country nearly impossible. We have many regulations which do not improve safety and hurt the environment.
  • Expand food stamps
  • Make retirement more secure by fully analyzing OASI. OASI will not survive with our changing demographics in the future. Millennials need retirement security, and OASI will not work in 40 years.
  • Every American needs health insurance, be it public or private. We spend way too much on health care. Create real public options. Health savings accounts are wonderful, there needs to be two public options, one which is an LDHP and another which is an HDHP with an HSA option.
  • Public-private partnerships are usually shams, waste taxpayer money, and underperform.

Foreign policy

  • Ukraine must win. Arm them to the teeth and push Russia out of the country.
  • Ceasefire in Gaza. Netanyahu is out of line and needs to be removed from power. He has now killed his citizens because of his hatred for Muslims. https://www.msn.com/en-sg/news/world/two-israeli-hostages-killed-eight-injured-in-israeli-strikes-on-gaza-hamas
  • Ukraine and Georgia need NATO Membership.
  • Putin needs to be removed from power. He is a threat to world stability. The only way this is possible is with a bullet. This is a trolley problem.
  • End all visas between OECD members.
  • Expand the OECD to include more democracies.

Also, regarding Israel killing its citizens in Gaza. Murdering Jews in cold blood is considered anti-semitic where I come from.

 

All of this is why, while I will vote for Biden over Trump, I don’t think either candidate is good. Biden is a bad candidate, he is just better than Trump.
