when the DEMS take control of Congress and two years later the presidency..

...whats on your Honey Do list for them to accomplish? For me, just the breath of fresh air of them being in control is plenty..but we have to clean house so first of all I want them to fumigate the oval office and rip up the carpets and burn all the bedding in trumps bedroom.

then....
gun control (I LIKE my gun but I HATE people having them who shouldn't)
free health care for all which includes all abortion access
free education
Climate Change legislation
etc etc etc.

I want a world with unicorns and butterflies!!!

We need to stop just complaining about income inequality and immediately move on to setting our goals and objectives.

There should be enough Democratic economists now who begin this now.

we need a value statement about wealth and income equality, and then set goals and objectives, and then propose a path to getting there.
