When An Idea Catches Fire

When an Idea Catches Fire

Five years ago would anyone have believed that cities and states across the country would have raised the minimum wage to $15 an hour? Nobody would have. Here's my point. When I am criticized for being too ambitious, talking about free tuition at public colleges and universities, rebuilding our crumbling infrastructure, moving toward Medicare for all, people call it: "too radical an idea." But what happens when an idea catches fire, when people see the justice of that idea, it moves very, very quickly.
