The most striking proposals were for the elimination of medical debt for millions of Americans; the “first-ever” ban on price gouging for groceries and food; a cap on prescription drug costs; a $25,000 subsidy for first-time home buyers; and a child tax credit that would provide $6,000 per child to families for the first year of a baby’s life.

    I’ll pour one out for all the idiots on here who have been crying about how she doesn’t have any policies.

      She used to have better policies. She used to be pro Medicare for All.

      Anyway, Kamala 2024. Woo. Hoo.

        Literally shut up. Who are these people who insist on impossible 100% perfection in their candidates? The choice is between ice cream and a piece of shit. You are complaining that there’s no sprinkles.

          No thanks. I want Medicare For All and I like candidates who actually believe in the things they claim to believe in, not people who shift with the political winds. Anyway, will vote for her anyway, reluctantly.

            I guess my reply yesterday must have swayed you that Medicare for All is what is needed and not just some watered down public option.

              Nice try. I liked Mayor Pete’s plan, "Medicare For All Who Want It”

                  Also not a candidate who actually believes anything she says.

                  Good thing she’s running against Trump, otherwise she wouldn’t have a chance.

          No need to not tell the truth either. Let people decide with all of the information, don’t hide the flip-flopping.

            All the information in this case being that one candidate is offering a $6,000 tax credit and the other one wants to tax your work benefits over $12,000.
