Action Against Hunger has a budget of around $700m annually. That's one of the LARGEST CHARITIES tackling poverty head-on. Our Foreign Aid budget, after it is divvied up, DOESN'T EVEN REACH $1b for most African nations. HOW are we supposed to reach our UN 2030 GOALS?

SEX TRAFFICKING is one of the most horrible realities of today's SLAVE TRADE. Let's replace today's real adult content with computer-generated content to protect our women.

As the richest nation on Earth, let's take on the responsibility of the world's poverty. Let's not rely on the billionaires to do it - WE have the POWER!

Regulating factory farms should be a top priority for progressives. Animals cannot speak for themselves but deserve to live decent lives.

As we making foreign aid investments around the world, we mustn't repeat other's mistakes. Investment should benefit and promote small time miners and farmers before the big corporations so growth can be shared by the wider society.

The Affordable Care Act has covered at least 35 million Americans, but about 30 million more still remain uninsured. Let's close the gap with either single payer or public option!

Families that live in extreme poverty around the world may have to accept multiple deaths of children / siblings due to hunger (and disease) over the years. Those that survive, are stunted and malnourished. We have not forgotten them! POWER to the PEOPLE!

Today's Ivy League institutions BLOCK more opportunities than they PROVIDE. We must merge all higher education into one universal public education system. It should be both optional and free!

In a society that values profit sharing, workers will feel more than just dignity in their work, but they will feel amicable to society at large.

Assuring quality shelter conditions should go hand-in-hand with building towers for the homeless. The solution to homelessness cannot involve slum-like tiny spaces but requires the building of adequately sized units. Likewise, there should not be bugs or violence in shelters.

The United States should lead the world not by war, but by FOREIGN AID. The past was ruled by conquest and even containment, but the future is about FRIENDSHIP and PROGRESS!

Impoverished families around the world choose work for their children instead of school. We need policies which empathize with these families rather than shutting them out. Let's expand our funding for independent contractors in Africa, instead of major corporations!

Homes for families around the world are essential. Imagine the memories formed in a home compared to a shoddy hut! Providing a home solves many poverty conditions in one go.

We need to take on major infrastructure investments in Africa which make use of locally sourced materials and labor!

Cannabis legalization is a shining example of progressive expansion of freedoms for people. Why should responsible, working-class people who use cannabis be under the threat of the law? Their lives have enough difficulty as it is. Progressive societies are compassionate ones!

The cartels impede both our drug treatment programs and our gun violence reduction measures. If we drain the cartels of funding, our policies will be far more successful. But to drain them, we must set up legal replacements for the cartels. It's not radical! It's preferable.

The green revolution has been massively successful and shows the power of socially-guided capitalism. In a similar way, we need to invest in desalination, vertical farming, and even GMOs to increase the food and water supply.

We should never put country ahead of humanity
