[GPSCC-chat] "Progressive Budget Blueprint" [Sanders]

[Gerry Gras]

FYI,

"Sanders Goes on Offense Against Austerity with 'Progressive Budget 
Blueprint'"
"As budget committee meets again, progressive lawmakers declare 
full-throated defense of Social Security, Medicare, and Medicaid while 
saying 'Jobs, Not Cuts' is more sensible path"

(The latter page has a petition/)

I'm glad to see this.  From my reading, the only thing austerity
is good for is transferring wealth "upwards".
