If getting a living wage and having a safe working
environment is socialism, then that is one principle worth having
in our culture.
So let's make it also a democratic prinicple.
First of all, that's the kind of crap democrats have been guaranteeing for years, but nearly all of the power is going into elite corporate hands. If you have Hillary, you have corporate capitalism or fascism (or, more accurately, a combination of both).

Let's look at the options the two party's give us regarding healthcare:

1. "Let's give better care to the rich, but let's snip out the
other groups."

2. "Let's force everyone to pay for healthcare."

Neither of these are top notch, as far as I'm concerned.
