Democracy IS NOT a spectator sport.

Please find a way of getting informed and involved.

A famous Thomas Jefferson quote on education and democracy is: "I know no safe depository of the ultimate powers of society but the people themselves; and if we think them not enlightened enough to exercise their control with a wholesome discretion, the remedy is not to take it from them, but to inform their discretion by education".

Introducing Project 2030

A new vision for the working class.

We The People, are falling behind.

Wealth Inequality Crisis

Gini-coefficient is a statistical comparison of wealth inequality.

*Lower the better*

India = 25.5

Finland = 27.9

Canada = 29.9

Germany = 32.4

Russia = 35.1

China = 35.7

Haiti = 41.1

USA = 41.8*

Mexico = 43.5

60% of America is living paycheck to paycheck. China and Russia have more wealth equality than the US!

Nations without universal healthcare.

United States: The only high-income country that does not have universal health coverage, with a complex mix of public and private insurance. 

Mexico: One of two OECD countries (along with the U.S.) that does not offer universal care. 

Pakistan: While it has an extensive infrastructure, the public system is under-resourced, with the private sector serving the majority of the population. 

Eritrea and Montenegro: These countries have 100% of private health costs paid directly by consumers. 

Cambodia: Operates on a system where patients pay providers directly, with little to no insurance available. 

Chad and Nigeria: Use a system where patients often pay service providers directly for care. 

Turkmenistan: Patients pay for healthcare costs directly, with little to no insurance. 

AFFORDABILITY CRISIS

1960s Car = $2,000 | Home = $19,000

1990s Car = $12,000 | Home = $150,000

2020s Car = $40,000 | Home = $400,000

American Dream or Illusion?

NO More WAR 

Justin comments on his Marine Corps service from 2003-2012. Although peace is the ultimate goal, we must also be able to fight for what we believe in.

As odd as it may sound, my time serving across war-torn nations - has deepened my appreciation of peace and diplomacy.

We have a lot of problems to solve.

Why are you running for office?

Similar to why I joined the Marine Corps infantry in 2003 after graduating high school, I feel a call to serve.

  • We need term limits, removal of dark money and lobbying from the system, non-partisan primaries or ranked-choice voting options, etc.

  • The federal budget rests more on the backs of individual earners than it does on the backs of wealthy corporations - it's due time that changes!

  • Universal Healthcare, Education Reform and expansion, Immigration Reform, Data Privacy

Those that forget the past are bound to repeat it.

When the ‘power of love’ overcomes the ‘love of power’ the world will know peace.
