I just started this, but I'd like some comments please. My goal is to create a "reasonable" list of things we want. I know we'd all like things like student loan debt forgiveness or free universal health care, but I'm trying to focus on "near" term achievable goals that middle America could get behind.
I like it! I'm in college now and tuition is just ridiculous. I recently started a blog as well.

I agree, tuition is crazy. If you're taking out loans, my idea would make repayment tax deductible which would help out a lot. I'd love free college for everyone, but that's just not a realistic goal at this point. I've talked to come very conservative people and they all support making tuition and loan repayment tax deductible and of course I'd expect most liberals to support anything that would make college more affordable.
