Vision

Politico is a mainstream corporate news outlet that covers politics inside the box of the two Wall Street-funded political parties. So, while it does a good job of covering politics within that context it is not an outlet we go to for creative thinking. That is why it was surprising when Politico published a lengthy article "What Would A Socialist American Look Like?"  The article was a fair representation of the views of Democratic Socialists and laid out an image of what the United States would look like if the economy were democratized, workers were empowered, racism was confronted and equity in an economy that put the people's necessities first would look like.
