Thread: Ron Unz running for US Senate seat in CA

    Ron Unz running for US Senate seat in CA

    He basically is in the Ron Paul/Pat Buchanan orbit (check the alternative media he links to): http://www.unz.com/
    Articles he has written: http://www.unz.com/author/ron-unz/

    He is resurfacing after a two-year hiatus. In 2014, he sponsored an aborted measure that would have raised the the state minimum wage to $12 by this year. He believes the dueling minimum wage proposals for the 2016 ballot, which would eventually hike base wages to $15 an hour, are too aggressive and will harm business in the state.
    But the fact that GOP lawmakers joined their Democratic colleagues in voting to place the repeal before voters “just shows how worthless the Republicans are,” said Unz, adding he has a pro-immigrant background. The Legislature’s action two years ago was “just the sort of total idiocy that explains the disgust most voters have with the establishment politicians of both parties.”

    Ron Unz on the issues!

    As a U.S. Senator, I’ll carefully listen to both sides of every issue, do my own research, and support the policies that I believe are best for our country and the American people. But here are some of the major issues currently driving my campaign.

    Keeping English in the Schools
    Raising the Minimum Wage
    Solving Our Immigration Problems
    Cutting College Tuition
    Admitting the Iraq War Disaster
    Opposing Affirmative Action
    Controlling the Wall Street Casinos
    Ending Our One-Party Political System

    Make College Cheaper by Cutting Administrative Costs - Ron Unz

    "However, the biggest factor in rising expenses has probably been the huge growth in the administrative staff. A couple of decades ago there was one administrator for every two faculty members, and now the numbers are roughly equal. Doubling the number of these non-teaching administrators, some of whom receive outrageous salaries, explains where much of the extra money has been going."

    "One way of cutting tuition would be to persuade the state legislatures in California and around the country to allocate many billions of additional taxpayer dollars to increase public subsidies to their state colleges and universities. But most government budgets are very tight, so this seems unlikely to happen."

    "Therefore, the only apparent means of substantially lowering tuition is to drastically cut the expenses, especially those unnecessary administrative costs. Liberals and conservatives should unite behind this important political project, backed by the millions of students who desperately need cuts in their extremely high college tuition."
