The basic principles of progressivism a Social safety net Those that work hard and play by the rules should receive a decent standard of living, as well as freedom, security, and opportunity. Democracy Minimize concentrations of political, corporate, and media power so that individuals have a stronger voice in their government. Publicly finance elections to reduce the influence of wealth in the political process. Improve public education, especially in civics and history so that more citizens can take part in the political process. Bring corporations under stakeholder control, not just stockholder control. Larger role for government Government provides public services that the private sector cannot or is not doing effectively, or ethically. Government should promote and, if possible, provide greater democracy, more freedom, a better environment, broader prosperity, better health, greater fulfillment in life, less violence, and the building and maintaining of public infrastructure. Ethical business sector In the course of making money by providing products and services, businesses should not adversely affect the public good, as defined by the above values.
