This Should Really Scare You About Joe Biden Domestic Policy

Joe Biden
On Thursday, the Biden campaign revealed the members of six “Biden-Sanders Unity Task Forces” that will develop his policy platform for the general election run, according to a press release.

The six groups will focus on immigration, climate change, criminal justice, the economy, education, and health care. There does not appear to be a sound advisor among them.

Democratic Socialist  Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez will co-chair the working group on climate change.

House Progressive Caucus co-chair Rep. Pramila Jayapal, D-Wash., will co-chair the health care group.  He campaigned for Sanders in early primary states and supports "Medicare for All."

Former Attorney General Eric Holder, who was part of the Obama administration, will be part of the criminal justice reform group.

And, most concerning, the eonomics task force includes Stephanie Kelton, who promotes modern monetary theory--the idea that you can just print and print and print money out of thin air to solve all the country's problems.

Let's hope that these groups won't actually have any influence over the platform that Biden and the DNC adopt and that it is just a reach out to these mad people.

If Biden's team actually supports any of the stuff coming out of these groups and he is elected, we will be in worse trouble than we are now.

  1. I don't believe that Biden's campaign will adopt any of it. If you watch the Hill's Rise or the Jimmy Dore show, the democratic socialist types are all completely disillusioned with the entire race and also with Bernie Sanders. They apparently see AOC as a turncoat for joining with Biden.

    It'll just be be the business-as-usual democrats.
