Social issues and policies
Democrats are in favor of many social policies to help reduce poverty, especially food assisstance programs, public housing, curbing homelessness, free education, free healthcare, and energy assisstance programs. For many years liberals in Arabi have been trying to implement a universal healthcare program but ultimately have been unable to agree fully on how to make it work. Many Democrats are in favor of a univeral basic income for citizens making less than $30,000 a year. They are also in favor of making education tutiton free but have been successful in lowering tutions for private institutions. Democrats are in favor of raising taxes on citizens that make $150,000 or more a year. A carbon tax has been growing in popularity within the party to curb climate change.
