Addressing The Current State of The Union

There are many who hear the word 'socialism' and immediately envision a draconian surveillance state riddled with poverty except for those in power. The reality of it though, is that democratic socialism works, and in many cases it has been an instrumental system in improving the lives of citizens, while ensuring their protection and security through government means. This is a party advocating for the people, and their best interest, and not for corporate bidders, or monopolists. Americans ideals of justice, freedom, equality, and opportunity are of paramount importance to us, and our prime directive is to ensure the ability of everyone to take part and seek out their own piece of the pie. Voting for the Social Democratic Party of America says that you care about the current stressors of modern American society, and that you want to do your part in remedying a damaged system that improperly serves its people.

A vote for the Social Democratic Party of America is a vote for guaranteed, and secure retirement for your family, for your friends, for yourself, and someday, for your children. Nearly 37% of Americans haven't saved anything for retirement, and only 14% have $100,000 or more saved. *
The Social Democratic Party of America will overhaul and revitalize American retirement assurances through a bolstered federal pension, and by requiring businesses over a certain size to provide retirement plans as a form of supplementing personal, and federal abilities.

Healthcare should be a human right, instead of a prominent source of anxiety for so many who contribute so much.

Universal healthcare is not just a dream, it is more than possible and will be instituted with a negligible financial impact. A mere 2.3% excise tax levied on businesses, only after earning their first $2 million in annual income, and a 1.25% payroll tax on businesses employing more than 50 people. Individuals who earn more than $150,000 annually would also incur minimal additional taxes, these would be so small that someone earning $2.5 million would only pay an extra 2.5%. *
