We are what we create, Values and Systems are the mirror image of the creator, Strife and Hate, Amplified through the airwaves, targeting us with negative messages pitting neighbor against neighbor.
Humanity is our commonality, civics is the operating system we can code to accomplish what we design it to. The default system does not have to be YOU VS. ME, in a race to the bottom of operational efficiency.
What do you want the default to be?
Is Politics about people? Is Politics about Power? Is Politics about tribal warfare?
Are our politics doomed to be run by players, policies and systems not updated since the 70’s?
Does dogma and orthodoxy cloud the mind? Making the creator fail to recognize a new paradigm? Do differences and power for the tribe in our separate silo’s cause us to use fear and distrust that prevent us from connecting the dots?
Is Trickle down economics and its solution to the stagflation of the late 70’s now the virus that is weakening our democracy? Could it be that today is a new day for a new way? Are you tired of waking up in a scene from Groundhog day?
Affirmative Action for Information?
Free Markets is the design, Does that mean all information gets equal time?
If likes, clicks, and views are the currency, In a Free Market, does a lack of them mean less popularity?
Does equal space and equal time, Mean that the idea is equal in the mind?
If you want to elevate your speech due to bias, Then you agree, that Affirmative Action in employment is the way to go?
Bias is bias if that is what you see, So how about a little intellectual honesty?
Ok…can I have more than a second?
Quarter to Quarter religion, Where shareholders trump the worker
Where people without power twist in the wind, Where poverty wages lead the way
Where long term R+D is sacrificed at the alter of the cost cutting machine
Where investments in people are a novelty, where a long-term vision costs too much
Stars can shine without teammates being left behind, If we choose people over power
Government can set the rules, Industry can apply the ingenuity
Protections from, or regulations of, don’t stand in the way, If the wise wolf governs the animal spirit of the free market
But none of it matters if it is all zero sum
Capitalism is still the way, but the stakeholders must have their day, So, our ecosystem can nurture us all, so all can be brought into the light?
