Our economy should not be guided by market principles but by humanitarian principles. That’s the fundamental shift that will turn the ship around in the 21st-century. A thriving humanity will improve the market, but making the market thrive does not necessarily improve humanity.

Case in point: We should massively front-end resources in the direction of children. It will provide no immediate monetary profits for anyone but it’s our greatest chance for long-term economic profit and sustainability for everyone. Our most precious resource is a child’s brain.

The government does not get to tell me how to be "charitable" and decide where my money goes.🤡
Lots of "shoulds" No action plans, steps, measurable goals. Leadership is not your thing, Marianne.
There are books and courses about leadership skills.

Oh you mean like following the lead of @jacindaardern? That will take a lot of growing up bc people will have to put down their fear of the feminine. Not seeing that in a country steeped in the exploitation & domination of women on every front.

Being a millennial mom, I find myself in a constant struggle between spending time with my kids, which is intrinsically rewarding but makes no money, and focusing on my work, which means time away from the kids. I feel like I'm trained to just...make money, damn the kids.

Then America should stop buying Hollywood and start buying Grassley’s sunrise pictures. We are following Grassley, and, thank you for your advice. @ChuckGrassley

An economy managed via non political agenda but macro and micro economics with civil society in mind serves humanity. This is not happening because those in Govt focus on the capital markets and that is not the economy; doesn't factor in trickle down economics.
