A reader forwarded the agenda of what we suspect may be a subversive organization. How otherwise did they ever come up with such notions?
| 1. Invest in America’s Infrastructure2. Create 21st-Century Energy Jobs3. Invest in Public Education4. Offer Medicare for All5. Make Work Pay | 6. Secure Social Security7. Return to Fairer Tax Rates8. End the Wars and Invest at Home9. Tax Wall Street Speculation10. Strengthen Democracy |
They go on to espouse some strange notions: “AMERICA IS NOT BROKE. America is rich—still the wealthiest nation ever. But too many at the top are grabbing the gains. No person or corporation should be allowed to take from America while giving little or nothing back. The super-rich who got tax breaks and bailouts should now pay full taxes—and help create jobs here, not overseas. Those who do well in America should do well by America.
AMERICANS NEED JOBS, NOT CUTS. Many of our best workers are sitting idle, while the work of rebuilding America goes undone. Together, we must rebuild our country, reinvest in our people and jump-start the industries of the future. Millions of jobless Americans would love the opportunity to become working, tax-paying members of their communities again. We have a jobs crisis, not a deficit crisis.”
Heck, if we followed their suggestions we probably would be out of the recession within two years. Then how would we get Barack Obama out of the White House?
