World AIDS Day is December 1st. The White House has released a bold vision-a Blueprint to End AIDS. This Blueprint to End AIDS is based on new science. In May of 2011, the findings of a groundbreaking study were released showing that if the United States and other wealthy countries increased their investment in getting people onto AIDS treatment we could end the AIDS pandemic in about 30 years. Now we just need to fund it.
The Robin Hood Tax, or financial transaction tax, on speculative stock sales could generate up to $350 billion per year. Just a small portion of that money is enough to end the AIDS pandemic around the world in our generation. We challenge President Obama to support the Robin Hood Tax Campaign’s fight to End AIDS & fund healthcare, housing, education, jobs & human needs
