A New Economic Vision, in 27 Words

Summary:
By James Kwak A couple of weeks ago I posted a 6,000-word essay laying out a new economic vision for the Democratic Party. It kind of vanished into the ether, although Stephen Metcalf was kind enough to say this: Reupping. I really think this is a critical, possibly foundational, document, and I seriously urge anyone following my account to read it. https://t.co/CXRxe4OfhU — Stephen Metcalf (@Metlandia) June 16, 2017 So here it is, in 27 words: All people need a few basic things: An education A job A place to live Health care A decent retirement Let’s make sure everyone has these things. If you want more, there is always the long version.

Topics:
James Kwak considers the following as important: Democratic Party, Economics, politics, syndication
