91, Democrat, marched against Vietnam War; teacher, musician, linguist; Fulbright scholar, Paris. Lived on a small boat in France for 10 years, including Iraq debacle. Politics always, family history. As a child was involved in the “war effort” of WWII.
This is another criminal action by the mafia “Justice” Department.

What is needed is a change in economic conditions! No more pyramid system but instead a Doughnut Economy. Where the whole of the community is more important. Where sustainability of life with great emphasis is on green policies! Kate Raworth is the creator of this concept!

We have the power, but do we have the will?

It’s incredible how often we’re told these conditions are the product of fate rather than the result of deliberate decisions. Once you realize inequality is engineered, it becomes impossible to accept it as inevitable. Policy built this world, and policy can build a better one.

None of it is natural and much of it caused by government policies.

Examples: Government policies are directly associated with banks, health insurers and health providers becoming too-big-fail and concentrating wealth and power.

Local policies limit housing growth.

Living in a nation we can be proud of includes:

• being free to speak your mind and to mind your own business
• having enough to live on, to grow on, and to support others
• helping other countries thrive when they likewise help others
• finding resources to help individuals and businesses alike

I served honorably during the Cold War, but now I NEED medicine every day to live. Without ACA subsidies my premiums will be more than our gross income. Trump's alleged credits wouldn't pay for 6 weeks of coverage.

It's like someone hired Congress to be a Hit Man, to kill me & people like me.
