It’s Time for a Change!
This editorial was posted on Dave Nation’s World in June 2006 but most of the issues are still valid today.
People have been wondering how to frame the position of the Democratic party for the upcoming 2006 elections. It seems clear to me: It’s Time for a Change!
It’s clear that most people don’t agree with the direction in which the country is headed.
The issues are numerous:
- Universal Health Care
- A Balanced Budget
- Conservation of the Environment
- Tolerance of others’ Rights and Beliefs
- Paper Trail to ensure Fair Elections
- Public Finance of Political Campaigns to Combat Rampant Corruption
- Maintaining the Integrity of Scientific Research Findings
- Funding Stem Cell Research
- Freedom of Personal Thought and Actions following the Golden Rule
- Real No-Torture Policy
- No Government Kidnapping of Individuals and holding them without Legal Representation
- Tax Policy that strives for the Common Good
- Tax Incentives to do the Right Thing
- Treating Drug addiction as a Medical Condition and not a Crime
- Others?
You may not agree with all of my positions on these issues but don’t you agree with me that “It’s Time for a Change!“?
