But if recent events have taught us anything, it's that a corporate job is no guarantee at all.

There may be guarantees of primary and secondary education for all boys and girls, guaranteed "well being" after retirement, or jobs and health care for all citizens.

We will improve social security, increase job creation, promote equal access to public services and balance income distribution. This will ensure that the benefits of development are shared by all.
