Our economic system is basically a scam, a markets-rule-no-matter-who-or-what-gets-hurt organizing principle guaranteed to make a few rich & the majority unable to get there. It’s a corporate aristocracy that views most people as serfs & finds democracy inconvenient. VOTE IT OUT

"Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure" - so this doesn't apply to the majority? I am a bit confused, bcoz I knew you Marianne for motivation, self-improvement etc, but your political tweets contradict to what you teach. So how is it?

Spirituality isn’t denying a problem, pouring pink paint over it.That’s not transcendence, it’s denial. ACIM says you can’t bring the light to the darkness, you must bring the darkness to the light. Seekers should be the biggest grown ups in the room, not children unable to see.

Immoral form of capitalism

Capitalism has swerved from its ethical center; that must change or it will create its own repudiation. Organizations like “Conscious Capitalism”, b-corps, Eileen Fisher etc are all good. There’s a rising tide of consciousness among many capitalists but there needs to be way more

THANK YOU for leading powerful conversations. LOVING the teaching the teachers lessons. Blowing me open. Every time I see this conversation, I see a "need" for the corporate, as it employs the masses. How do we move beyond that addiction?

Corporations in and of themselves are not the problem. The problem is that because of their undue economic influence, the powers of government are now placed at their disposal to the detriment of the American people. The myth has been promulgated that this is good for everyone.

Well no one's really running to change that...curtail the excesses perhaps

Anyone running to hold capitalism accountable for ethical overreach is working to change that. That means the majority of Democrats, certainly the progressive ones.

In an already lopsided system favoring wealth & corporations; should people vote to continue benefiting those few entities, or would you vote to help/benefit people -- health, education, ss, etc.?
