Reconstruction Party Manifesto: on Jobs


Gainful employment at a guaranteed income for every family

Reconstruction Party Manifesto point #2. We Want Full Employment Now!
We want the definition of national security to include the general wellbeing of U.S. citizens and residents. No children in this rich country should be raised below the poverty line. We believe that the federal government is responsible and obligated to implement an economic policy that provides an opportunity for every family to have gainful employment at a guaranteed income.
