9 Radical Ideas in the Biden-Sanders ‘Unity’ Platform
Joel B. Pollak9 Jul 2020
Former Vice President Joe Biden and Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-VT) released the policy recommendations of their “unity task force†on Wednesday.
The proposed platform marks Biden’s continued shift to the left, as the so-called “moderate†candidate — a label he has rejected — continues to be steered toward more radical positions to appeal to the party’s base, offering “revolutionary institutional changes.â€
Here are nine of the most radical proposals in the “unity†document:
1. “Rejoin the Paris Climate Agreement … on Day One.†Even many on the left agree that the Paris Climate Agreement does little to slow climate change. It is a symbolic commitment by the rest of the world to reduce emissions, while most of the burden falls on the United States. Our economy has reduced emissions anyway on its own, thanks to the shift to natural gas and the advent of fracking technology, which the left hates and wants to phase out over time.
