Dream from Malta


- A livable minimum wage (higher than poverty line for the given region) - Prioritization of the Environment - setting aggressive green goals in emissions, renewable energy and plan to achieve them. Plan should include plans for a coast to coast, N-S fast-train system. - Affordable health care for everyone - Medicare for all or similar. - An America that remembers it is the Land of immigrants - welcoming to refugees and providing opportunities for immigration. Regularization of all good faith irregular -immigrants. - Radical criminal justice reform focusing on rehabilitation and drastically reducing incarceration. - An America engaged in the World - in Climate Change, Medicine, Science and elsewhere. Aggressive soft diplomacy through aid. - A vastly improved safety net. - Free college (state school equivalent tuition) for all. - Affordable daycare for all, better parental leave for both parents. - An aggressive low income housing program. - Systems which ensure true equality for all irrespective of race, gender, sexual orientation etc. - Strengthen worker and union rights. - An aggressive post COVID recovery plan. (Done!) - A government that believes it can do things and does not always subcontract tasks to private industry. Especially when the service or task is critical or can come in conflict with profit motives (such as privatizing the Postal Services or Prisons)- essential services should be run by the public sector.
