Raven's 10 Policy Platform for Good Governance in 2025, Independent of the Country:
1. Every citizen and documented immigrant should be guaranteed and be able to expect the government to do it's best to represent their needs and best interests as best as it possibly can to enable to maximum health, fulfillment, and enjoyment in life.
2. Universal Single Payer Healthcare, free at the point of service for all citizens and documented immigrants, and a buy in option for undocumented immigrants and visitors. (Basically Bernie Sander's Medicare For All Proposal)
3. Housing For All, make it free for all citizens and documented immigrants, and a right for them. Undocumented immigrants and visitors would need to pay for housing or seek temporary residence shelter status. (Closest to Cuba's housing model)
4. Free Public Transportation, free for all citizens and documented immigrants, undocumented immigrants and visitors can buy in, privatized and privatization of public transportation would be illegal.
5. Disabled Inclusion and Equity, Disabled citizens and documented immigrants have a right to self determination and independence so long as a group of 10 physicians and judge via a court ruling or criminal trial waiver as a result of insanity determine otherwise. Treatment of disabilities must be inline with best efforts and good faith to both improve the quality of the disabled citizen or documented immigrant's life and their health. Disabled citizens and documented immigrants who cannot provide the means of living for themselves will be cared for.
6. LGBTQ Rights, any number of people who can and do consent to a sexual, romantic, and/or marriage based relationship should have the right to do so and all the same amenities and legal affordances that any monogamous cisgendered heterosexual couple would have.
7. Free Universal Education, all education is free for citizens and documented immigrants: free tuition, free learning materials, free textbooks, and free basic needs. When you are a full time student, your job should be to learn. Getting into college and higher education is enough. This would ban the employment of students in full time attendance to any educational institution. Undocumented immigrants by being accepted to a specialty lower education institution or a higher educational institution of any type should be granted documentation and legal residency. Programs should be made to entice these immigrants to become citizens and stay after receiving their education.
8. Birth Right Citizenship, if you are born within a nation's borders, you should be entitled to citizenship of that nation.
9. Citizenship By Heritage, one ancestor of pure heritage or of citizenship of the land in the last 5 generations Can be done with birth records, adoption paperwork, or reputable DNA testing results.
10. Citizenship By Immigration & Assimilation, documented immigrants should be encouraged to assimilate, this should be done through free language courses and certifications and free culture courses and certifications. The formation of ethnic enclaves by immigrants should be fiercely discouraged, but families and friends must never be separated to achieve this goal. Voluntary sublimation of the immigrant population into the predominant and preexisting culture is the ultimate goal. Prospective immigrants without a criminal records and/or who are dodging the draft or oppression of any enemy nation and/or who are the victims of genocide(s) abroad, must be prioritized. Prospective immigrants personal finances should not matter in the immigration process. Becoming a documented immigrant should be simple and sensible and follow these guidelines.

I heard from some folks that companies in software engineering and probably IT that are wanting people with Master's degrees. It is apparently the new wave for corporations to desire a Master's degree over a Bachelor's degree in the US.
This is a greedy corporate disease. FUCK these corporations. It is going to be time for a Socialist revolution. Luigi Mangione started the killing of the United Healthcare CEO.

in this case, the remedy seems to be more or *better* transactionality: Zelensky needs to offer these youth in Ukraine even more -- #FreeCollege like the G.I. Bill on steroids, housing, guarantees of family support in injury or death, etc., -- hell even land resettlement rights...
Catching up with the rest of the world is the only way the #UnitedStates can be made “great.”
Teaching at a Massachusetts community College just got tougher- why do employees stay?
#Battleground states are #Democrats to lose according to #BernieSanders...
#Bernie tuggin' #Kamala's ear saying recent polling shows taxing #wealthy is supported by a 71%-27% margin overall. Even #GOP #voters favor it by 55%-43% majority.
67% overall approved higher corporate #taxes, and vast majority in key #electoralcollege states want higher minimum #wages, increased #SocialSecurity benefits; adding #dental, #vision and #hearing coverage to #Medicare; bigger Child #TaxCredits; single-payer #HealthCare; true debt relief; “#AffordableHousing and capped #rent hikes; plus #FreeCollege for all etc.
Unfortunately, 51% of 1,158 likely voters in Arizona, Georgia, Nevada, Michigan, Pennsylvania, and Wisconsin agreed that "Democrats do not have
clear solutions for the biggest issues facing
the country"

I have not heard #OneGoodReason why bailing out #IvyLeague graduates is a good idea
They already make more than you ever will in your lifetime but yeah #FreeCollege
Here's a summary list of what #JoeBiden & the #Democrats failed to do:
1. Failed to codify #RoeVWade & protect #AbortionRights
2. Failed to pass the original #InfrastructureBill, the #BuildBackBetter bill that was $3.5 Trillion
3. Failed to deliver on #PaidTimeOff
4. Failed to deliver on a Public Option #Healthcare Plan
5. Failed to deliver on #FreeCollege and Free #Education
6. Failed to deliver on legalizing #Marijuana / #Weed / #Cannabis / #Drugs
7. Failed to protect #SNAP

This is a Big Deal: a majority of #FreeCollege programs only support students right out of high school. https://social.coop/@actualham/110950639370898094

The #FreeMarket is not going to resolve the healthcare crisis facing the United States.
We all as Americans desperately need to support #MedicareForAll and #FreeCollege for medical degrees before it’s too late and our healthcare system collapses on itself.
