Remember that tax cut the republicans pushed through and its been down hill ever since. Its not a tax increase its returning taxes to where they should be when the state was doing well.
The repuglicant plan to cut taxes did not work. Its a simple message. Repeal the Tax Cut!
The Democratic party needs to make a priority
The legalization of Cannabis and Hemp in this state.
This would create jobs and revitalize agriculture.
Increase tax revenue and close the giant budget hole.
Lower jail and prison populations and reduce cost.
Reduce cost of policing and redirecting energy to real crime.
Free up the court system and reduce cost.
Guarantee the State Constitution Section II-2 Inherent rights: All persons have the inherent right to life, liberty, the pursuit of happiness, and the enjoyment of the gains of their own industry.
The opportunity is now. We know the state needs the money. The evidence is clear there is no danger from this plant. But it can offer so much! Legalize it!
A Basic Standard of Living.
We are born into this world as human beings with certain inalienable rights. Among these are the rights to life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness.
Those on the right fight for the right to life but it seems they only care about life while it is in the womb. The day that baby is born poor pull yourself up by your boot straps to bad you were not born to better parents or better life circumstance thus is competition work harder.
Those on the right promote death and war as a normal state of being. Humanity was not meant for war.
The earth could be our garden of eden but we must first accept eachother as equals as brothers and sisters one big family with many ideas and view points but one people one planet one life.
A basic standard of living would help ensure life. What does one need to live, shelter, food, clean water, electricity, health care, and a living wage and or guaranteed income.
Liberty, is forgotten in America. Those on the right believe when you go to work you are there slave you are on their time and you lose your right to free speech free expression and free thinking. This is wrong. No matter where I go i have my right to express myself and my ideas. It is my time and you as the employer are meerly paying me for my time and my production.
Its time the workers started asking for more. The billionaires got their billions off our backs. For it is the workers that truly create the wealth of this nation, but it is the owners that take it all.
We have a shortage of jobs in this country. Of good jobs with guaranteed retirement a good wage and all the perks. We could double the work force if we all work less and get paid more. With automation and robotics and AI its only a matter of time. To work 20 hrs per week but get paid more than you do now. Plus you have a basic standard of living a guaranteed home and all the basic necessities pay wouldnt be as much of an issue.
The pursuit of happiness. Imagine all the great art, music, ideas, creativity, books, engineering, lost in war, poverty, depression, drug use, the basic struggle to survive. We have the means to take away this basic struggle of meerly surviving hand to mouth. We have the capability to allow every life to pursue its happiness. We need to change our mind set. It will never happen in a world of competition violence and war, but removing the basic struggle of being one paycheck away from being homeless, going without food or water, or heat or light or access to basic information and education removing that struggle and guaranteeing every living soul the right to life liberty happiness property education and the pursuit of their dreams would truly lead us to the promise land.
End War! Stop killing eachother and start healing eachother! One love!
If Trump is such a madman
He is dangerous and crazy and a loose cannon trying to provoke war.
So what do Democrats in the Senate do? Vote to increase his military spending making him $80,000,000,000.00 more dangerous.
How do we as a party in one breath say Trump is dangerous and in the other breath say well lets increase his danger by $80 billion?
We need an anti-war movement
In the Democratic party.
Democrats in the senate have supported and 80 billion dollar increase to the war machine of death and destruction. 700 billion dollars total to kill countless lives around the globe.
Its time the Democrats said enough! We will no longer feed your murder machines. Its time we as the Democratic base demand anti-war candidates! Every senator that supported this murder bill should be primaried witha candidate that values human life and want to invest in books and not bombs!
We need an anti-violence movement!
A anti-violence revolution were we shun anyone who believes violence is necessary and can be justified. No more can we solve our differences with sticks and stones or drones and bombs.
We can bomb the world to pieces but we cant bomb it into peace. The world leaders need to lead through non-violence. When a President condemns violence and hatred yet is raining down violence and hatred across the globe the hypocrisy is clear. To cry about the death of babies yet american bombs are falling on them everyday the hypocrisy is clear.
We as a people must demand non-violence and any leader or politician who funds murder any politician who chooses war any person who makes money off the death of the innocent should be outcast and forgotten. It is up to us to make the world the way we want it to be!
Donald Trump kills children.
The beautiful children the beautiful little girls and boys he murders them every single day!
Children killed by american bombs
Children killed by navy seal raids
Children killed by pesticides
Children killed by drug raids
Children killed by the toxins in our air and water
Now he is president all these lives are on his hands. So when he talks of beautiful babies remember he is a baby killer!
Platforms Democratic party should be fighting for
1. Universal health care medicare for all!
2. Universal utilities power water phone and internet for all!
3. Universal housing a home for everyone!
4. Universal education from prek to graduate degree.
How do we accomplish these goals by reframing peoples understanding of taxes. People think of a tax as the government taking from them and wasting the money on whatever pork project they have going. But taxes are much more than just what the government takes. The rich tax you as well. They tax for access to housing they tax you for utilities they tax you for healthcare they tax you for education they tax you for food. Instead of paying the tax to the government you are paying it to a corporation and making wealthy people that do almost nothing even wealthier.
Our tax dollars paid for the internet and cellphone infrastructure now private corporation tax us to use that infractructure.
Our tax dollars paid for the power grid and dams the water and electric infrastructure now private corporations tax us for access while making the wealthy even wealthier.
If it wasnit for our education system and colleges the corporations would have no work force. Innovation comes from the college campuses through tax payer funding. Yet private corporations tax us for access to these innovations. And they expect the workers to pay for their own education so the worker can get in debt and work a dead end job for the rest of their life.
Its the corporations that should be paying for education in this country. It is the education of the work force that allows them to be successful.
Your mortgage is a tax, water bill a tax. Health care bill a tax, Rent payment a tax. Electric bill a tax and on and on.
Thats why a graduated tax system with all the necessities in life being taken care of makes the most sense. And the wealthy who benefit the most from living in this society and those who live off the hard work of others pay the most!
The Democratic Party should start the mantra
Of No Harm!
We should live in a society and world of do no harm! We should teach our children to do no harm. And we should have leaders that believe in do no harm!
We need to change the goal post of success from who makes the most money to who does the most good. The ones that preach war and hate should be shunned. The ones that preach greed and destruction should be removed from office.
We need leaders that believe in non-violence. We need leaders that stand up to destructive and tyannical laws that tear apart our society and allow the few to exploit the many.
We need to allow every soul the opportunity to follow its own path and as long as the path includes no harm to others than we should allow the individual freedom.
Treat others as you want to be treated. Treat every living soul with respect and give all honest respectful guidance education and information.
Basically love and nurture eachother. Its so simple but human beings always have a way of complicating simple things.
So to all on a day we celebrate the start of a war but also the start of a struggle to reach the ideal of equality freedom and peace. I say we honor our fore fathers and mothers by declaring peace! And the Mantra of Do No Harm should ring!
