jill star
candidate
or the presidency of the united states uh... from
the agreeing party uh...
welcome to the program jail
i think i'm not going to do with the fam so jill and i will start ah...
i know one of the service central planks of what you're reading uh... the running
on is known as the green new deal tell us about what the what that is
yeah well you know we've got that american big going on at more than one
under contract
one part of that is the job the merchant the we've got hired that pain
unemployment and underemployment
and we have another emergency which is the climate which is not going down
far faster
them if i am predicted and it's been
uh... sound to be you know it's hard to optimistic
uh...
but we got to problems and the good news is that we can problem off in one fell
talk
did without what we call at green feel it based on the new deal that actually
got out out of the great depression in the nineteen thirty
can create jobs directory now job in our community that may cut but amiable
ecologically as well as economically and socially third-degree new deal would
provide national funding
for community to decide
what kind of job they need and that concludes that spectrum out problems
that we traditionally think about
at the green economy that is the and clean renewable energy and conservation
in a local organic agriculture
poverty and pretty soon and clean manufacturing
and we can also create the job that we need
to be sustainable socially let tire back
both hundreds of thousands of teachers that have been laid off ought to be care
after-school homecare violent and drug abuse prevention and rehabilitation well
affordable housing construction
we have the resources we have the people who need to work
let's put 'em
back to work
and one thing i should added that it create the green deal creates a halt
spectrum
of type of work
so it would create public servant there
and public work
wary instead of going down to the unemployment often
you go down to the empire that often
and you get a job that make your community
healthier stronger more just at the table
but it also provide hired at money gram alone
or malden nothing and worker cooperative
to op
get up and running and create that transition
to agreement connie that is also in the local economy
this patent you don't provide the big bach
to multinational corporations and unfortunately
you know that that's what the press event amulet pakistan in two thousand
and nine
it let them but geordie
of money that went to tax breaks for large corporations
that doesn't create jobs
instead that create jobs at the community level
by jump-starting the small businesses and worker cooperative we need
to recreate those local economy
and they also we circulate the dollars
locally instead of shipping off profit to corporate headquarters in the cayman
island it's a win-win
for our are economy
for job
for the environment
that the added off though
at the benefit of making warrant for oil out the way
all right well let me so uh... i mean
financial
the characterization of the
the stimulus is
if i agree necessarily with your you characterization of the stimulus but
um... because i mean i think all of that
at in our coming in
propaganda bait whether the stimulus but the fact that are not
and you know i think it takes to get the create about two to three million jobs
that would prohibit obviously didn't pick the problem right but that you know
if the real problem with the you know that
what that
that majority of the funding with actually corporate tax breaks
tax break for an extremely expense of way to create jobs were arguing that the
money needs to be put tour rectly
in the job creation
not pack brick right minuses agree with you
uh... tax breaks are incredibly inefficient ways and means that
stimulus
highly
as far as i know the the
the the tax break in not just for a corporate but also for
uh... personal taxes um... was
along the lines of about two hundred and forty billion of the seven hundred
and seventy billion
maybe maybe three hundred billion
but i certainly will would agree that
to the extent that
the the stimulus bill had estimate of affects it was it was not large enough
and ab uh... and and i don't know that it he created to any along
structural changes in our economy which is clearly also you know
uh... at the point
um...
yahoo going to
minded um... of this and and i want to speak in a bit in terms of
uh... of sort of served in larger
structural challenges to governing from a third party
uh... but your what other what uh... what are their one other issues do you
think uh...
on the forefront
uh... of your campaign
not backing up i'd carry on the forefront of our campaign
and really the forefront of
the american people who are
also clamoring
four real health care reform
that provide
health care at the human right which is the court in poll after poll
that we need
a public option or
or aid medicare for all pollution which is what we're calling for
and that it health care
for everyone
covered comprehensively
that put you back in charge of your health care detention
not a profit-sharing he you know
and which is also
st dot trillions of dollars over the course for the next decade
because medicare for all
point than and into the massive wait till health insurance iraq rixie
and i think a lot of medical inflation felt the win-win all around
um... in the public is without on that
well i think we're also with the public
in calling for dot com fighting the military and bringing our troops home
uh... from
uh... you know from iraq from afghanistan in especially large numbers
and as well as from the overcrowding dated in over a hundred forty countries
around the world
the public support bringing the troops home
and actually downsizing the military and we're calling for
a return to remove the military budget before this incredible buildup
over collection in here that we've extended drone wars for example
deeper into pakistan into yemen and somalia and pending armed troops now
where they've never been before in central africa a building new bases and
about the basia
you know i think the american public does not support that massive
bloated and military industrial picture d complex
which is costing up about a trillion dollars a year we're calling for the
budget up
ten or twelve years ago
which was about half that
five and would return
hundreds of billions of dollars a year to work on
to our need here at home
i think the public is also without
in calling for taxes on the rich and they did not job
you know flap on the red
uh... uh... say the billionaire attacked which that step in the right direction
but doesn't get
to the real late fraud and abuse and are correct that uh...
we need to actually put any transaction tax on wall street
that would generate
uh... hundreds of billions of dollars a year at that same time
that if the rain again
that incredible uh...
gambling in speculation on wall street which is of bread
a good in and of itself
terrain naan
uh... we're calling for taxing capital gains like income
though that billionaire they're not paying and after eight
of their secretaries and and janitors
the public support
taxing the rich and visa so i just uh... exercise statistic i think it was uh...
my master in the context of what but that sixty percent
of all income that is subject to the
tunic to capital gains tax goes to pay
point one percent of the population point one percent of the population gets
fifty percent of the income from capital gains is just starting at is just as
stunning uh...
statistic
ed absolutely here and you know you'd make capital gain actually
i much more uh...
high-priority target actually than even the income tax because
because big profits are outraged at the end they are targeted to the very
chipita at the top of the extremely obscene with that
though yeah absolutely people becoming the
uh... in changes we're calling for that the public is actually clamoring for
and i get back to that
ummm
uh... dat legalizing marijuana because if they drive which is danger it
the cognitive illegally not illegal because it dangerous
because in fact if not dangerous typically far less dangerous than
alcohol
and uh... tobacco which are completely legal
it needs to be regulated it needs to be taxed it needs to be put out a breach
to young people on the street who have essentially unfettered access right now
to the illegal
uh... in criminal distribution system which is basically
you know um... mmm running almost scot-free
and the war on drugs needs to be converted to hate
the public health
arena not any criminal arena and legalizing marijuana is the first place
to begin the because our jails but basically double
inside over the last
fifteen years
the prison system is that second-fastest growing etc
of our state government but if the largely locking up
you know people of color who were
uh... in prison for obama mostly non-violent offenses for possession
and recreational use of the narrow one upto
it'd be completely uh...
and um... i need to be
uh... fixed and can be checked at the paint i mean it
not only they ended up in the norm at the amount of money being wasted on the
bloated prison industrial complex
but actually earn that money by putting their money into the legal
and attacks
framework
let me ask you about uh...
well it was uh... at least the predicate for the for the stimulus in two thousand
nine which was
the housing crash and did the tremendous amount of
wealth that was lost and when that uh... housing bubble
wild wild what how would you approach uh... the at this
this problem and also
of the i guess the the problem uh... that we've encountered in terms of
the the ramp that mortgage fraud that took place in those uh... those build up
years and then go in many respects is continues
absolutely and paying for bringing that up action pension repaired another key
issue
uh... in our campaign because we are calling for an immediate moratorium
unhone foreclosure and calling
for any a party that required the bank
queuing ago she went home owners to keep them in their home at why we bailed them
out
i thought the white congress provide hundreds of billions of dollars
to the president of the white house which unfortunately they refuse to you
know it
and they allowed millions of homeowners
i have to be thrown out of their home from six to eight million who've already
been thrown out
and about that many more are in the pipeline and angeline i think
have been done
so we would require
uh... did bank to negotiate
and that part of that negotiation
would call for
lowering of the principal on the mortgagor
down to current market value because that's what happened when banks effect
homeowners anyhow uh... they wind up i've been selling the home if they're a
ball or the whole you know simply languishes unoccupied
and vacant which is the real danger to community print them property
values and become very happy you-know-what a and the uh...
a platform for for crime and drug abuse and so on in the neighborhood
uh... but
let lower vote valued now and keep both families in their home
left the bank
you know talk about moral hazard he really could use then you've got an
excused by the bank
the the real moral gathered here at the kid with the banks in fact and with the
mortgage brokers
because they not only
settled
predatory mortgages
targeted
elderly people of color and the poor
and and paddled and price be too long
on people under very false pretenses was false advertising
push people into the loan
and then they actually bungled those loans into a fraudulent security
pushed by the securities on their client
then better against those security uh... in not in derivative
and then after being bailed out that that is absolutely outrageous
the bank are bigger than ever they continue to commit crime
almost on a daily basis we're hearing about the latest will treat candle
including equated
wilhite more scandal the london
uh... i interbank offering great supposedly at the credit
rate which turned out to
be allegedly manipulated and bank
have already been fined for that
in europe and the investigation have just been the begun interview at bank
you know bank
called on that you have nobama white-collar declaring
that goldman faq
will be held
basically are unaccountable they can
get off scot-free they will not be brought to trial even though congress
filed special report
ingesting that there was rampant waste fraud abuse going on at goldman sachs
the white house
and refused to hold any major executive account of october
in short you know there to to loosens wanted that we actually need to bring
the of the authors of this crisis known to
committed what he's trying to get we need to bring them to trial
they should not be too big to fail
or to be detail we need to break up the bank
and we need to start the putting immediate moratorium on foreclosures in
requiring bank
to not negotiating keep homeowners in their home that's why we bailed them out
attendance
of uh... yeah i mean it out sons uh...
i mean i think that's the
make but couldn't agree more cyclically perfect with uh...
with your analysis and it uh... the prescription um... so let's talk a
little bit about um... uh... just uh...
uh... ballot access and uh... matching funds as we get a sense of or where
you're at
atm where uh... people have the opportunity to vote for ya i'm looking
at your a map on uh... jule styne dot org uh... and it appears like you have
the ballot access in at least
almost forty states at this point
that's right army
there are somewhere we're currently filing p real application
date that had lake deadline but where we're currently finally on the ballot in
something like thirty four in the process than another sick
and up possibly getting on the ballot in another three four five state and would
be a funny thing is that we are firmly on the ballot
indeed large states and the date that are really the population better if
everything from florida to new jersey new york illinois ohio uh... california
taxpayers you name it hit the big state we are already on so that we will be
offering voters
uh... somewhere between ninety two ninety five percent of voters
can't be sure that when they walk into the voting booth on november spec
they will have a real chile that is not already bought and paid for up by wall
street and that you will not happen simply chose between two candidates that
when you vote for them it essentially intent on wall street the mandate for
four more years of this raking up over the call there will be our way to stand
up and say uh... we've had enough antebellum a deal called for real
opposition and for taking back our democracy and implementing the policy
that the american people are already clamoring for xxxxxxxxxxx
