‘Workers, Wages & Weed' - Two TX Dems’ Suggest A Midterm Message
Two former Congressional candidates urge Democrats to start trumpeting progressive policies that are popular with red and blue Americans: a $15 minimum wage, stronger worker protections and legalized marijuana.Personally, I'd go with legalized pot, worker protections and Medicare for All.
Everyone wants legal pot except a few old fuckers and evangelicals.
Stronger worker protections, including more support for unionization, would increase wages so it's a two for one.
Medicare for all would help everyone. Allow some old fuckers to retire opening up some better jobs for younger people.
Workers, Weed, and Healthcare doesn't roll off the tongue as well but it would help more people.
However, since both parties are owned by our corporate overlords, they will be a tough sell.
