1. Raise the minimum wage to an actual living wage. $15 or $16/hour. We'd be able to cut social programs left and right. 2. Close tax loopholes. All that "offshore accounts" bullshit. And no more corporations tax-dodging without consequence. 3. Regulate the maximum amount CEO's of companies can take home. No one needs those fucking million dollar bonuses for tanking companies like we saw in '08. 4. Restrict corporate campaign funding. Corporations are NOT people. These seem like no-brainers to me. There are many other steps we could take, but I gotta jet.
