the "programs" are really just free public college education and single-payer healthcare, which would be more than paid for by adopting a progressive tax system, taxing capital gains & dividends the same as income, taxing wall street speculation ($300 billion profit in taxes), and the lower administrative costs of switching to a single-payer healthcare system.

I'm not a Hillary stan. I'm a pratical liberal Democrat who understands the mind of moderates and conservatives and realize that socialism is looked down upon in this country by millions.
YOU are telling me everything I know and believe in. But more than half of America either doesn't understand it or are too selfish to try. America has deep capitalistic roots, and if we keep it up with these progressive/socialist policies without getting those others in line, then it's a lost cause.
People (especially upper middle class whites) don't want to hear about you taking their taxes away and giving it to the poor. That is facts. Reaganomics is still deeply loved in this country. America has not had a progressive tax system in decades for a reason.)
