JF, I like your list, now here's my responses: 1. Raise the minimum wage to a living wage I don't mind raising the minimum wage by a few percent every year, but the definition of a "living wage" is a slippery slope. 2. Sharply limit legal and illegal unskilled immigration We got to control illegal immigration, but legal? Please, as if the pressure to outsource and move jobs offshore isn't big enough. 3. Pass laws that strengthen union organizing They're already too strong as it is. 4. Pass ultra heavy taxes on corporate paychecks over $200K and give tax breaks for total wages paid The execs will just compensate themselves in other ways, and the ones that will truly suffer are the upper middle class. 5. Pass universal health care We've already been over this. Fix the problems currently plaguing health care right now, and I might believe that state-sponsored universal health care would be cheaper. 6. Restore the old personal bankruptcy rules No opinion there. 7. Guarantee collage costs for low income families This I agree with. Now if we can only tell the colleges to control their costs ... There are a few. Told you you wouldn't like them. Wrong again, John. I actually like half of what you're suggesting. Which probably makes you feel very uncomfortable ... Tenchusatsu
