Two reasons why Democrats are courting socialism

1. Stagnating wages

2. Health care

If wages kept pace with inflation, the minimum wage would be above $15.00. The richest 1 percent control 90 percent of the wealth in America.

Health care is a total mess and Government cannot come up with a plan that works for everyone.

Why not health care for all?

It's working in Scandinavia.

Workers in trade unions.

Universal health care.

Free tertiary education.

I know folks who have moved there from Britain, and they say that the quality of life in Scandinavia is so much better.
