An independent progressive movement?

45. Jobs for all, fight to reduce inequality, invest at home.

Thanks for sharing this RiverLover. These are all very worthwhile goals. I agree with everything on that platform. We must reform the democratic party. We need a strong progressive movement that looks out for the large majority and wants them to succeed. We must make corporations and the ultra rich pay their fair share. I believe we must close those big corporate loopholes and double the tax rate on the top 2%.

We're a wealthy country and people who work should make enough to live comfortably. Every single person.

I support the most progressive possible candidates locally and on a state and federal level as well.

I think we should start proposing specifics. I want to see the activist spirit that has helped us achieve prosperity as a nation. It must come from the people. We must put up good candidates. We must keep talking with friends about it.

I feel a lot of discontent and dissatisfaction in our country. Rightfully so. We must work together to keep fighting for our rights and privileges, or they will be stolen from us.

I've begun reading at the progressive group and appreciate all the folks who are posting there.
