Joshua Brown completed Ballotpedia's Candidate Connection survey in 2022. The survey questions appear in bold and are followed by Brown's responses. Candidates are asked three required questions for this survey, but they may answer additional optional questions as well.
Collapse all
|- Make the rich pay so we can have free, public and universal healthcare, education, housing, utilities, gas, etc. Eliminate markets, private property, and social-classes. Centralized control over all industry, planned in the interests of the workers.
- NorCal EcoSocialist Jobs Initiative: Create enough green union jobs in infrastructure, transportation, mining and development of 100% green renewable energy, thinning the forests for need, logging, and construction that we rapidly industrialize like in Stalin's Soviet Union and have a Chinese-style Belt and Road Initiative.
- Soviet-style collectivization of agriculture: Create a system of ecologically based, sustainable, organic agriculture based on family farms and farming cooperatives that guarantee full workers' rights, uphold all environmental and safety standards, and treat their live-stock in a humane manner. Create socially owned enterprises in the areas of transportation, storage, and processing of agricultural goods, controlled by boards comprised of farmers, farm workers, and community members.
Nationalizing the healthcare system. Sacramento Democrats, with cheers from Megan Dahle, killed single-payer healthcare twice (AB 1400 and SB 562), which proves that they are way out of touch with the working class who gets sick and dies, and the working class needs to get them all out of office, replace them with socialists who will make healthcare free, universal, and public. I knew I had to step up to the plate for this election.
Homelessness, and to combat it, I propose we take public ownership of all vacant houses and apartments, and house people for free. I also propose that we abolish landlords, rents, evictions, mortgages, etc. and transfer ownership of housing to the tenants.
