10. I'm still leary of Steyer

For years we've heard republicans tout that businessmen were the best choice for elected office as well as president and loo what we've gotten. Tax breaks for the wealthy and crumbs for everyone else. Insider trading with no accountability. Loss of healthcare support to millions of Americans, higher health insurance premiums, closure of rural hospitals, higher gas prices, etc.. So when a billionaire spends over $130 million in a primary election I get suspicious of their intentions. Part of it also goes to the fact he's held no elective office and has no experience in government budgeting, taxing, spending, and the political process of achieving them.

If Steyer is the only Democratic candidate in the general election I'll vote for him.
