The specific delta between this position and the current mainstream approaches of both major parties.
The 2024 Democratic platform emphasized antitrust enforcement, consumer protection, junk-fee reduction, community lenders, and stronger financial oversight. The 2024 Republican platform emphasized deregulation, innovation, cryptocurrency, small-business finance, and opposition to a retail central-bank digital currency.
