Economics and healthcare which I'm very moderate on.  Truth and answers are found in the middle.

Healthcare- This country needs to have universal healthcare for those making less than $200,000 and there's no harm in a 50% tax bracket on those making over $225,000 to pay for it.  Universal coverage would include biannual eye exams and chiropractor appointments with annual visits for those with conditions, those 65 and older, and children.  Funding for this program would come from higher taxes and $60 premiums for every $1,000 of earned income on last year's taxes after $20,000.  Policies would receive up to 50 visits per year or 100 visits if someone on the policy has been hospitalized within the year's coverage.  Requirements for coverage would be 3 months of legal residency in the U.S.  Private insurers would still remain for those who prefer private insurance, the wealthy, and companies who provide health insurance.  Companies not ensuring employees without coverage would face a tax penalty.


Education-  I'm conservative on school choice and curriculum.  What this country needs to do though is give a 30% discount to college students whose parents earn less than $160,000 annually.  High school students must complete 12th grade or attend until the age of 18.


Environment- Begin an international fund to help developing countries use green energy and set goals to reduce fossil fuel usage to 10% by 2025 along with 50% nuclear and 40% hydroelectricity. 


Economics-  Minimum wage would be over $18.00/hour if it went up with inflation for the past 45 years in addition to the 20% increase in worker productivity.  It needs to be $11.25/hour and go up annually to keep up with the cost of inflation. 


Prison Reform- Legalize marijuana and decriminalize other drugs unless there is an intent to sell or minors are being supplied.  Allow for optional rehabilitation instead of jail time.  Allow for optional career classes in prisons so inmates can keep their job skills while incarcerated.  I know most of them won't attend, but if it helps 2-3 of them here and there it's worth it.  Eliminate the death penalty.

We also need amnesty every few years for immigrants who have resided here the whole time. Cuts down on red tape.
