In closing remarks at the PBS NewsHour/POLITICO Democratic Debate, entrepreneur Andrew Yang pointed to what he says are the problems he sees in America-- high levels of depression and suicide, kids addicted to smartphones and drugs, and companies reporting record profits while people are dying younger. “Help us rewrite the rules of the 20th century economy to work for us,” he said. Yang is one of seven Democrats vying for their party's presidential nomination in 2020 who met the increasingly challenging qualifications to be on the debate stage on Dec. 19, 2019.
