The current political mindset runs counter to the worldview that will lead us into a more sustainable future. It treats symptoms but doesn’t name cause, ensuring that even when symptoms are dealt with they’ll in time morph into other forms. We need a new political enlightenment.

We need to embrace the future that we want & work back from there. The challenge is that a genuinely sustainable future will fundamentally disrupt the current economic mindset that dominates our policy-making. But any politician who says so is nullified by the current system.

Until people wake up to that nothing will change. The political media industrial complex is extraordinarily adapt at silencing who it wants silenced and people are so easily duped, having been mentally trained to take the mind-deadening drug the media dispenses on a regular basis

It's not a mindset. It's capitalism. It systemically rewards people motivated by insatiable greed while punishing or ignoring those humanitarian goals. We could get rid of all the bad people in charge today and the system would still choose another crop of bad people.

Crony capitalism unfettered by ethical considerations or a governmental regulation IS a mindset.

Sounds you like the Great Reset!

Ok, you got my attention. But move past the lofty rhetoric. What are some concrete examples of "enlightened" politics and mindset? What are some practical things that you would do, or have leaders or government do, if you could?

We as a country must become a moral force of ethics, decency, and of a higher consciousness that is concerned with the well being of all people.
