1/ We're living at a time of planetary emergency, when we urgently need to address climate change, wealth and gender equality, sustainable agriculture, nuclear power, science, AI and more in ways that should have been addressed systemically for the last 25 years.

2/ When this phase of the crisis ends we'll need to hit the ground running."This phase" because COVID is part of a rolling planetary crisis that's simply begun to reveal itself to more people. We have solutions & the problem-solvers; we need to turn solutions into political force

3/ It's not just traditional political & economic resistance to change, or even $ in politics that's the problem. It's old thinking, our resistance to change, & our codependent relationship with a system that has failed us miserably but rewarded us just enough to keep us seduced.

I think the most enlightened societies have elements of both socialism and capitalism.

Then why do you support Biden?

Because Trump is so dangerous. I see the political parties like two broken arms & two broken legs, but the Trump administration like a bullet near the heart. First things first. If we let Trump win again, we'll have a harder time dealing with the broken arms and legs. Much harder

Didn’t everything change with Citizens United? Everyday Americans can’t compete with deep pockets bent on continuing their immoral oppression. They think they own us, but my abilities are mine and no one will force me to do what I don’t want to do. #GeneralStrike for all 🇺🇸.

What I saw as a candidate makes me think that everyday Americans COULD make a difference, but way too many are easily duped into thinking and acting the way the system dictates. The manipulation of information is outrageous, but most of us could think for ourselves a bit more.

As Marianne Williamson so eloquently says... “We must no longer ask ‘pretty please’ for what is rightfully ours, while settling for crumbs fallen from the aristocrat’s table —- All people shall feast at the table.”

Our system is a very good system. The welfare system has to address needy people and put them to work so they feel viable. I can’t believe so many people worry about getting food but they have 4 kids. Please.. why have children you can’t provide for.

Now that Bernie is out would you consider endorsing #JesseVentura2020 on the #Green ticket?

it's kept the wealthy seduced, for sure. You might want to ask your help about how sexy it is for them.
