24. I agree with virtually all of this

I would add that in addition to medical, vision, and dental coverage, it should also include mental health coverage.

But the first amendment would have a problem with the mandate news organizations telling the truth. If nothing else how does one define truth and who defines it? Would you feel comfortable with Donald Trump or his lackies define it?

The proposal about property needs clarification. When you say no business should own no more than a dozen properties, does each apartment count as a separate property or each building? Additionally the idea that a company can't own more than a dozen commercial properties would wipe out a lot of major businesses, and would that include overseas properties? AWS alone has 292 data centers. I agree that office space shouldn't be left empty, but I'm not sure that's a good way to go about it. How many stores does Target, or grocery stores have?

But yes overall there is a real need to have clear easily explained solutions and paths towards them.
