All we’d have to do to create a healthy abundant economy is marshal our resources in service to people living healthy abundant lives.
Right now we do it backwards.
We deny people even minimum requirements for an abundant life supposedly in service to creating a better economy.

Wearing people down is the primary tool by which a corporate ruling class effectively quiets what would otherwise be a healthy rebellion against it.
The most astonishing thing about America today is how many economic slaves are intent on protecting their masters.

A billionaire class that lords over millions of people and traps them in a system that consistently denies them the dignity of a decent working life is an aristocratic phenomenon that has no place in a democratic society.

Corporate greed is Warren Buffett becoming over $46 billion richer during the pandemic while the rail company he owns (BNSF) refuses to provide paid sick leave to its employees and fires workers for “the crime” of going to the doctor while it makes record profits. Disgusting.

A profit based healthcare system is a moral failure.
Blindness and vision loss are among the top 10 disabilities among adults in the United States. But a new analysis by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention suggests people with impaired vision aren’t getting the health care they need. wapo.st/3EryoNn
