Seriously, I'm having one hell of a time seeing a way out of the mess we're in, and it's a global problem. Republicans and other conservative-party people around the globe (along with a big sack full of dictators and other despots) control far too much of the world's capital, and hence a disproportionate amount of the media. Not speaking of politicians so much as I am the wealthy class that buy our pols. If we get two steps forward in 2018 and 2020, they will pour huge amounts of money into reversing those gains....and they will.
These are some of the basic big-picture questions I struggle with:
* How do we un-Walmartize our communities?
* How do we reverse the vast economic inequality across the globe?
* How do we deprogram the millions of people who have been brain-washed by evil media moguls like the Murdochs?
* How do we return to a predominantly loving, sharing, unselfish society?
* How do we get more people to start loving and protecting the Earth?
And, it hurts to know I'm now too damn old to make much of a difference!
