Micheal Bloomberg prepara su primera vez en un debate primario demócrata.
A medida que se acerca el próximo debate primario demócrata celebrado en Las Vegas, el exalcalde de la ciudad de Nueva York, Micheal Bloomberg, ha presentado un plan que, según él, reducirá el exceso de Wall Street y restaurará y fortalecerá las salvaguardas clave para los consumidores al tiempo que pone al sistema financiero en riesgo. trabajar para resolver los desafíos más urgentes de Estados Unidos.
“El sistema financiero no está funcionando como debería para la mayoría de los estadounidenses”, dijo Mike Bloomberg a través de su sitio web . “ The stock market is at an all-time high, but almost all of the gains are going to a small number of people, and our economy is still vulnerable to another shock like the 2008 financial crisis that devastated families and communities all over the country. President Obama made important progress strengthening our financial system and protecting consumers – but President Trump has spent the last three years gutting those safeguards, while giving a huge tax cut to the wealthiest people. As president, I will toughen the Volcker rule, protect Americans from predatory and discriminatory practices – and harness the power of the financial system to spread opportunity and drive economic growth in every community.”
“Given how profoundly the 2008 crisis undermined faith in the establishment…authorities everywhere should be doing all in their power to fix the flaws it revealed,” the plan also states, which reflects the scars left by the financial crisis on voters, according to Morning Brew.
His proposals to rein in on Wall Street also includes reversing many of the Trump administration’s banking deregulation, strengthening the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau, and phasing in a financial transaction tax of 0.1% for every stock or bond traded, which have already started raising some eyebrows, according to CBS News, given he advocated against aggressive new regulations that targeted the financial sector back in 2010. At the time, he was serving as New York’s mayor as the U.S. economy was regaining its footing following the financial meltdown of 2008. Adding financial regulations, he wrote in a 2010 letter, would be “punitive” and hurt economic growth.
A social media milestone
En las últimas semanas, el magnate de los medios ha invertido cientos de millones de dólares en una campaña publicitaria diseñada para hacer que los influencers de las redes sociales lo respalden con la esperanza de llegar a los votantes más jóvenes y posicionarse como un candidato viable y moderado que puede vencer a Trump.
Después de esta táctica de memes única , ha obligado a Instagram y a la empresa matriz Facebook a cambiar la forma en que permite a los políticos manejar el contenido de marca. Anteriormente, Facebook había prohibido las publicaciones patrocinadas por temor a que esas prácticas pudieran ser consideradas contribuciones de campaña por parte del gigante de las redes sociales.
