I hope that everyone is hanging tough. Let us rebuild the world democratically, fairly, and more healthily. Let us help everyon arise to their potentials. Let us help each other to become stronger, more confident, by creating real, honest, and fair relationships with each other.

I have an idea for a new type of economy: Fair Trade. Instead of capitalism, we will treat each other fairly and with respect. I do not lie to my customers, my employees, my partners, nor the government. The reason I say this, I am implementing my philosphy of Fair Trade. I am struggling though, and that $#&%'s! Joke. No, really.

Anyway. I hope you all enjoy!

1. Excellent summery of many of the most impt. steps we must take asap --

I would only add as equally urgent steps to restore the media to its "watchdog" role, including, among other things, restoring and increasing protections against control by the oligarchs of the media including the internet, which is fast succumbing.

2. No amnesty. Except for that point, it sounds good.

Why should there be amnesty? Didn't we learn from the Nixon and Iran-Contra crimes that amnesty for these criminals just emboldens them? We have already gone the truth and reconciliation path at least twice in recent times. It does not work. No amnesty. No reconciliation with criminals.
