(39,405 posts)To stop trying to privatize public education and give it to Wall Street at the expense of middle, working class, and poor kuds.
To stop letting Wall Street pick their own cops.
To stop bailing out Wall Street and start bailing out their victims
To break big banks into small enough pieces that they can be subject to the rule of law
To treat Wall Street economic terrorists as at least as big a threat as the other kind that do far less damage, and prosecute their executives accordingly.
To stop a foreign policy based on serving transnational corporations that crushes democracy and workers rights in other countries. If we did that, we also wouldn't have as many illegal immigrants and refugees fleeing the receiving end of that policy.
To stop using Islamic fundamentalists to overthrow secular regimes in the Middle East, leaving a trail of chaos and death
To stop trying weaken Russia and China, which could lead to a world war, and instead look for ways to make a multi-player system work.
And to stop having socialism for the rich, and austerity for the rest.
