Requested edit: "Political positions"
Please someone who can edit this sort the section's first part chronologically, like so:
Economy and infrastructure
In 2015, Stein was critical of official employment numbers, saying that unemployment figures were "designed to essentially cover up unemployment," and that the real unemployment rate for that year was around 12–13%.[73][74]
In her 2024 presidential campaign announcement video, Stein proposed an "economic bill of rights" that regard employment, health care, housing, food and education as rights.[75]
Financial reform and banking regulation
During her 2012 and 2016 presidential runs, Stein called for "nationalizing" and "democratiz[ing]" the Federal Reserve, placing it under a Federal Monetary Authority in the Treasury Department and ending its independence.[76][77]
In 2016, Stein called the Wall Street bailout wasteful.[78] She said that she supported a new 0.5% financial transactions tax on the sale of stocks, bonds, and derivatives, and an increase in the estate tax to "at least" 55% on inheritances over $3 million.[79]
She furthermore supported the creation of nonprofit publicly owned banks, pledging to create such entities at the federal and state levels.[79]
