4/ We need an emotional & psychological shift. The answer is standing right in front of us in the form of fabulous candidates who, if they had enough money and volunteers, could absolutely amaze us in their primaries and beyond. They need an army of helpers and we need to form it

Jeff Bezos has raked in $34,600,000,000 in the last two months — 346 times the $100 million donation to food banks he can't stop talking about.
Billionaire philanthropy won't save us.
Tax the rich.

For those who are frustrated and even furious with the lack of compassion in our government’s response to Covid, this is a perfect time to read up on Gandhi and King. Their prescriptions for non-violent revolution will change your life.harpercollins.com/9780060646…
