About brooklynboy49

I always vote Democratic (or, on a few occasions, for third party candidates). While there was a Liberal ticket in NY, I cast my votes on the Liberal ticket. I have only pulled the lever for my presidential vote enthusiastically twice -- For George McGovern, the first time I voted in 1972, and for Walter Mondale in 1984. On all other occasions, my votes were cast against the Republican candidate more than they were cast for the Democrat. I believe in capitalism. Heavily regulated capitalism. I also believe that if we did three things, most of our problems would be solved and we would live in a socially and economically just society. Those three things being radical tax reform, radical campaign finance reform and radical health care reform (a single payer, non-profit system). Our day will come. Unfortunately, it will come after I\'m dead lol :(
