Jill Stein Green Party

[Anonymous]

I read her platform on her website as well. It's a looooong "wishlist", none of which she'd ever get done with a conservative Congress. I'm not looking for someone who has progressive ideas, I'm looking for someone who can get something done. Someone with "know how."

This is a prime axiom of the Trump axiom-- there is nothing you say as a negative about Hillary that isn't MORE true about Trump (except that she is a woman, so maybe we should call it the sexist axiom). She was the effing SoS and he didn't know Russia was occupying Crimea.

Sorry guess I should have also said that the idea she wants to shutdown all overseas based abd cut DoD 50% is a complete lie-- give us a cite or stop making things up.

from her platform:

Peace and Human Rights:
Establish a foreign policy based on diplomacy, international law, and human rights. End the wars and drone attacks, cut military spending by at least 50% and close the 700+ foreign military bases that are turning our republic into a bankrupt empire. Stop U.S. support and arms sales to human rights abusers, and lead on global nuclear disarmament.

Theoretically, she's not wrong. We spend way too much on "military protection" and far too little on people living in poverty. We govern the world yet ignore our own.

I voted Bernie in the primary, but kept an eye on Stein and liked her as well. But now I find her anti-vaxx stance very troubling and wouldn't vote for her based no that.

I admit that I don't know much about Johnson do have some research to do, but it's unlikely that he'll sway my vote from Hillary. Sad to say - I really dislike Hillary, but not as much as I dislike trump.

I heard that one thing she supports is giving a federal job to anyone who wants one.

If this is true, she is truly a nut.

What does this mean?

handing out jobs to anyone w/o credentials? I see nothing about this on her platform.

Here is where I saw it:

She proposes to end all use of coal, oil, gasoline and nuclear power by 2030, guaranteeing a federal job to anyone who wants one along the way, and says she can accomplish this revolution for $500 billion — less than the cost of President Obama’s 2009 stimulus. Even this trifle would be recouped in health savings, she said, as her “Green New Deal” reduced the incidence of asthma, diabetes and other illnesses.

A universal basic income would be easier.
