The community for creating a new US political party, so far our guiding principle is that billionaires are trash, United Health CEO had it coming, The Adjustor is our mascot and our main raison d'etre is to shit on the rich and take back whats rightfully ours.

Very well put, thank you for your post

First and foremost, this should be about implementing a huge shift in economic policy.

We need to increase taxes on corporations and billionaires

Put an end to their various loopholes they use

Mandate that the federal minimum wage be set to be on par with what it should be, given the median output of the workers and keeping up with inflation. (Should be somewhere around 25 bucks an hour by now)

Hold accountable (civil forfeiture of all assets. Or death penalty) the billionaires who wrecked the climate and economy, fucked over the worker and rigged the system to make sure they stay in power.

Divest from fossil fuels

Outlaw the legal bribery of elected officials (lobbyists), anyone caught bribing or taking a bribe should be severely punished.

End the for-profit medical system

These are just a few things, and I want to build on the other points made here as well
