Your job is to save the USA WITHOUT destroying capitalism. What would you do? What can you do? Basically—how can you make things like they were during Obama’s presidency?

As a lib my first thought would be: “implement universal health care.” But wouldn’t it be struck down immediately by the SCOTUS? Wouldn’t the health insurance companies just overthrow you? Won’t the corporate press immediately start treating you like Bernie (or even worse) in order to turn the populace against you?

Please discuss. Also I am not Biden looking for ideas. Nor do I work in the White House.

    Pack the courts, straight up some Huey Long level shenanigans too. My husband is going on the Supreme Court, as are my sisters but not my dad. Abolish the electoral college. Universal healthcare and universal basic income, pump trillions into infrastructure (But like, actually build it), Institute The Newer Deal for an Even Greater Society, and make being an employee of Goldman Sachs a federal offense.

    It won't be as good as abolishing capitalism, but it's the best you can do while remai ing lib.
