Defund the police
Transfer funds from surplus military hardware and paramilitary police forces and operations towards social welfare programs, such as Medicare and above standard educational programs. A UBI is another idea. Ending homelessness and redlining for prospective homeowners. Finally reparations are long overdue for the black population, the Hawaiians, the Native Americans, the Puerto Rican’s & the Palestinian populations and the entire Southern Hemisphere and to all others whom so much damage has been done.
Why is this important?
If we can afford 5 trillion dollars for the wealthiest thousand citizens and endless wars, we can afford college for lower to lower middle income families as an investment in our collective future. All of the things are and more are possible........Let’s do them!!!
