Excerpt
Edwards, a former Democratic senator from North Carolina, says the federal government should underwrite universal pre-kindergarten, create matching savings accounts for low-income people, mandate a minimum wage of $9.50 and provide a million new Section 8 housing vouchers for the poor. He also pledged to start a government-funded public higher education program called "College for Everyone."
Other things promised but not in the article...... free platform shoes for midgets, electrolysis for men or women with hairy backs, mints for folks with halitosis, hair for balding accountants and life for every dead Chicago voter.
According to the GAO, Edwards promises amount to 42.9 gabillion dollars. Edwards will raise the money by retracting tax cuts for the rich
