Unfettered capitalism, disconnected from a sense of moral & ethical responsibility to people & planet, has done & continues to do immeasurable damage. It will only be changed by an awakening of We the People. The political establishment that enabled the trend will not reverse it.

It’s not enough to reduce people’s suffering; we must challenge the underlying forces that make all that suffering inevitable. This will not be done by a political class tied to those forces in an unholy $ alliance, no matter how well-intentioned the individuals within it may be.

We need a fundamental disruption of our economic, social & political status quo. We need a non-violent revolution of the heart, a fierce repudiation of a heartless economic & political reality that has had its way with us for far too long & should have its way no longer.#bigtruth

Well sure, and we do that by allowing individuals to foster and exercise their individual power to make economic decisions (which is REAL DEMOCRACY) in an environment of freedom and cooperation, remember? In other words, your old job.

You’re forgetting that Capitalism has improved the lives of billions of people in the world. The technological advances achieved are making clean water possible around the globe. Why would people want to limit the productivity and stifle innovation?

Reducir el sufrimiento de las personas no es suficiente; debemos desafiar las fuerzas subyacentes que lo hacen inevitable. Esto no lo hará la clase política vinculada a las fuerzas en una alianza de $ impía, sin importar cuán bien intencionadas sean las personas dentro de ella

We must challenge the underlying forces that make people suffer. U can even start small I haven't bought certain brands since high school because I became aware of their disgusting practices of abuse. They are still a Multi$$ industry. I wholeheartedly can never buy from them
