Trump promised Jobs, he has failed to deliver

Donald Trump promised to bring jobs back to America and revive manufacturing jobs in Midwestern states. His trade polices have had the opposite effects. This is a clear indication that Trump's policies have benefited the one percent, instead of the 99 percent. Voter's need to be reminded that when economy really breaks down because of Trump's policies he will not be able to rescue us from disaster like Obama did?

Low unemployment is misleading and not a sign of a strong economy

Federal reserve and the Trump white house have been pointing to the low unemployment to signal a strong economy, they were wrong. In their unemployment numbers they don't count people who have dropped out and have not found a job for 7 months or longer. Furthermore the wages, which usually go up in a strong job market have been stagnant. The economy is not as great as the politicians want you to believe.

Conservative ideology to cut the budget to boost the economy is a failure. Alaska is proof

Here is a perfect example of how conservative ideology fails in the real world. Mike Dunleavy governor of Alaska tried to enact his small-government-conservative ideology in a deep red state and people revolted and have gathered signatures to recall him. The reason is that their ideas of no income tax and dividend worked as long as oil was profitable. Once that revenue dired down, they started cutting state spending which made people rise against him.

Obama promised us hope and sided with Wall Street – We need to learn from that

Learning from history will help us move forward. We need structural change. We tried staying with neoliberal policies of the Clinton and Obama presidencies and we got Trump. Nothing short of structural change will help us create a new future.

‘Trickle-Down’ Economics does not work, income distribution will fuel growth

Trickle down economics which was the theory behind Regan, Bush and trump tax cuts and initially started as a Joke by Will Rogers in response to Herbert Hoover policies in the 1920's in response to depression era policies is rejected by IMF. They show that income distribution matters to growth and if we want growth we need to concentrate on empowering the lower 20%.
