let's go to vote then i really really hope rachel rachel is not into the job creators come from the wealthy nonsense i mean come on which comes from the job creator myself a generation later right so i'm sol rachael i don't think you are and i create jobs . go ahead kevin rudd keep good job good jobs and you would be all employed people to buy your product and so you need to have a middle class you can buy products you know you just well it was a little shorter instead of behind the time when i was three people should if i had time i think i don't know they're going to make my knees also now they're off trying to talk over me i'm not going to stop talking and i'm trying to make a point the time when the wealth divide was smallest in this country was in one nine hundred fifty s. and sixty's when the highest income tax rates were at ninety percent we need to be debating the nixon tax or as the reagan tax that's fifty percent tops bracket versus seventy percent bracket we shouldn't be having fifteen percent for the richest people in the country which that we do have for our people in the count

but rachel is going to raise proven rachel in all honesty you're the only person that uses socialism on this program here kevin again how do we save democracy and have prosperity at the same time because they're divorced from each other right now. yeah and the fact that democracy is the solution we need to create a participatory democratic government where people are not just voting but also involved in making decisions for example in chicago and new york now they have experiment called something called participatory budgeting where in new york is a million dollars is given for capital expenditures for a council district in chicago is one point five million is given for a council district and the people in those districts actually get together and say this is what our community needs more lighting. bike lanes showers in the park what do you know what a fix this road fix this sidewalk and they come up with a whole list of different issues they debate them investigate them and they come up and they vote on what they want to see funded and it's very interesting when they started do this
