I think the profits of corporations should be restricted, and the remainder much more heavily taxed. Nope and nope.
I think the government should do something to narrow the income gap in America. Since shame wont do it, possibly.
I think gasoline prices/heating oil prices/you name the commodity prices should be held down by the government. Nope, but local subsidies will prevent many deaths
I think everybody should have free health care from the government. There's no such thing as free health care
I think there should be a maximum wage for wealthy CEOs. Nope
I think college education should be free for those who want one. Nope, but it could be more affordable in places
I think the government should further subsidize mortgages, cap interest rates, and put tighter controls on loan providers. Pass. In theory no. In practice, you might have to to prevent the economy going down t' tubes
I think there should be government restrictions on all activities that produce, or might produce, greenhouse gases. All? No. some? Maybe. Government incentives to reduce (taxes or tax breaks)? Yes
I think the minimum wage should be drastically raised. Define drastic. To within 10 bucks an hour then link it to inflation. Yep.
I think the use of private cars should be penalized by the government, and people encouraged to use public transportation. Define penalized, define encouraged. I'm pretty sure you'd put any gas tax in the penalized category. Latter part - someone's got to do it since the individuals won't all on their lonesome.
