I consider myself a center-left social democrat, and am a strong supporter of Bernie Sanders and the Justice Democrats.
In accordance with this stance, in terms of public policy, I support:
Medicare for All.
Tuition free post secondary education.
Paid family and medical leave.
Cutting back the military-industrial complex.
Full legalization of marijuana.
A full employment economy.
Abolition of capital punishment.
A net worth/wealth tax of 2% on all accumulated wealth above the $2 million mark ( a la Elizabeth Warren, though my proposal is actually much more radical than hers).
A value added tax of 10%, because I believe that the people who receive the greatest direct benefit from a more generous welfare state also need to have skin in the game, so to speak.
The Green New Deal, in principle, although I believe the deadline(s) are wildly unrealistic.
In terms of electoral reform, I support:
Full public financing of elections.
Automatic voter registration at the age of 18.
Ranked choice voting.
Abolishing gerrymandering.
