A government should not be guided by the priorities of corporate interests; it should be guided by the priorities of a healthy family. First you make sure your kids are OK, that they are fed and healthy and educated and safe. Then you make sure your home is OK, which for society means the earth on which we live. Then you make sure we take care of each other. Only when we shift our priorities from an economic to a humanitarian bottom line will we end the self-destructive trajectory by which we destroy lives and even the earth itself with such irresponsibility and reckless abandon.

By any standard, when a person is surrendering 40%-55% of their income in state, local, and federal taxes, that person is a slave. I didn’t sign a partnership agreement with government for “them” to fleece me and violate every value I have #nowar

Government should not dictate what is taught in schools. Conflict of interest. Let the teachers and parents of each community serve their students best. Yes, fund schools. But no more one-size-fits-all curriculum and pedagogy. “No child left behind” was an oxymoron.

Is it possible to continue with capitalism but not have government guided by priorities of corporate interests? If so, how?

I'm relieved that in the 20hrs since she tweeted this fewer than 100 Ppl have replied. So let me squeeze in amongst the Putin-paid trolls to say, @MarWilliamson is a joke--only around to denegrate REAL Democrats, with every interview she gives. Shame on her.

Is that why you stayed quiet as Biden rolled back Pandemic Unemployment for over 7 million workers and their families during the Delta surge?? Same year you praised him on his COVID response

That’s exactly the logic that has USA in the current violence, drug addiction, etc. Every decision in the government made based on how it will benefit the corporation. Never thinking in the people.

I don’t know why a racist like you is in my timeline, but be reassured, that even I as a European white guy can clearly see your colonial mindset.
