As we evolve away from the Industrial Revolution and into a world where new technologies boldly take humanity to places it never dreamed of, will humanity adapt to the change? What new ethical challenges will society face?

Innovate-Educate-Collaborate. Focus on the three to bring about change for the greater good in the state of Indiana
This is big: elected Republicans in a deep-red state saying NO to Trump even after his personal plea.

Increase in productivity since 1979: 87%
Increase in hourly pay since 1979: 32%
Just so happens that ~25% of workers were unionized in 1979. Today? 10%.
As unions declined, the super-rich have taken a larger share of wealth generated by labor. We must build back union power.

Three candidates vying for Durbin's seat had strong words, including Lt. Gov. Juliana Stratton, who directly criticized the senator's vote. "We need fighters in D.C.," she said, "not folders."

For 9 in 10 days so far this year, we were 100% powered for some part of the day by clean energy.
