What do you want from government?

[Erich Bloodaxe BSN]

2. Sounds like a decent list overall. For my own socialistic wish list, I'd add/refine to

equality and social justice - equal pay, marriage equality, no firing or kicking someone out or refusing service because of gender/transgender, sexual preferences. No parking dumping grounds next to poor areas while leaving rich ones clean and free of toxins. Revamping and elimination of racial disparities in the justice system.

a living minimum wage that also adjusts with the actual cost of living, not some 'inflation index' that doesn't include key components of modern life.

no corporate interference in public matters - no private prisons, no public funding of private schools, no use of 'mercenaries' by the government.

state run banking

nationalized utilities.

government run for-profit enterprises that compete with private sector ones that have to maintain profitability and pay back their start-up costs, so that profits might be used to fund other government needs instead of taxes.

not only single payer health care, but nationalized healthcare.

Pre-Reagan tax brackets up to a marginal rate of 90% above some certain point. Transaction fees on stock trades. Equality of taxation on income and non-work monetary gains. Much higher estate taxes on inheritances above 5 million or so.
