Is it possible for Democrats to coalesce and defeat the radical right?

38. Only if they drop weak bullshit like a "better deal"

And, instead of proposing more "job training" corporate welfare, propose things that will actually help people, like taxing the shit out of the rich, cutting corporate welfare and improving access to education for all.

People should have a RIGHT to: health care, a job that pays enough to live on, affordable housing, and clean air and water. Minimum.

So tops on the agenda need to be some kind of living wage act, some kind of legislation to reduce the cost of education (it should be free through a bachelor's degree if your family makes less than $50,000 and a sliding scale up to $200,000, after which you pay full freight), some kind of tax increase on the wealthy (top marginal rate needs to be more like the 1950s - 90%), some public option for the ACA.

Most importantly, a desire to divorce the party from corporate money. Because when they pay their bills, the corporations win and we lose. Every single fucking time. You can see patterns of voting for "our" legislators based on the money they get from corporations. It's disgusting.
