The only thing they have going for them to appeal to middle class people is the healthcare issue.
Believe it or not the "illegal" issue isn't the most important issue to most Americans no matter what Trump or his followers think.

That is what has kept wages low for working class people for decades.
No, I say raise the minimum wage for all individuals. That includes those working as farm helpers or in motels. Treat illegals (if that's what you want to call them) the same as any worker.

This is a slap in the face to all those who came to this country and did it legally. Disgusting what these candidates are promoting.

To do that, you have to either a) eliminate social security, Medicare, etc or b) open all this to anyone who comes here.

Capitalism works like this - the government does NOT pay every citizen over 18 a $1,000 freebie no questions asked each month, thats what Yang wants to do.

But someone before him said $500 a month freebies. sheesh.. hey lets make it a cool million!!! this is no incentive to work and try harder in the pursuit of happiness.
