Robert Kuttner at American Prospect has ten “radical” progressive “remedies” that America “needs.” Unshockingly, Kuttner fails to mention exactly what he wants to remedy. I suppose it’s capitalism, freedom, and personal responsibility? Here they are:
  1. Use Direct Government Loans to Refinance Mortgages
  2. Put Insolvent Banks into Government Receivership
  3. Nationalize the Federal Reserve
  4. Pass a Tobin Tax
  5. Put Tax and Regulatory Havens out of Business
  6. Enact a Carbon Tax
  7. Pass Comprehensive Pre-Kindergarten and High-Quality Child Care
  8. Guarantee Workers the Right to Join a Union
  9. Provide Health Insurance For All
  10. Use Very Large-Scale Public Works
Allow me to translate:
  1. Spend & More Government Control
  2. More Government Control
  3. More Government Control
  4. Tax & More Government Control
  5. Tax & More Government Control
  6. Tax & More Government Control
  7. Spend & More Government Control
  8. Destroy Basic Rights
  9. Spend &  More Government Control
  10. Spend & More Government Control
Oh, boy, I can’t wait.
