On domestic issues, the U.S. senator from Vermont advocated raising the minimum wage to $15 an hour by 2020, closing tax loopholes exploited by the wealthy and profitable corporations, undertaking a massive $1 trillion program to fix roads and bridges and create or sustain 13 million jobs, a Medicare-for-all health care system to provide better care for more people at less cost, an expansion of Social Security and tuition-free college.
I agree with the 1 trillion infrastructure idea, my biggest and really only concern is who will be employed by those projects.
Too many times in the past, good buddies get the bids, they make ALL the money, hire a bunch of illegal immigrants at 1/3 of scale and the normal American citizen gets shafted since they are the people who are PAYING for it all.
They should have weekly inspections. Any contractor caught with more than 2 illegal workers lose their contract and any opportunity to bid on government funded projects ever again.
