A national minimum wage indexed to the poverty level, serious reform of labor laws protecting and expanding collective bargaining, enforcing laws against monopolies, lifting the cap on FICA to extend its solvency and expand benefits, etc.

Those are all OK. But they don't address the major problem - the lack of good paying manufacturing jobs. We need to bring some of that industry back home.
