Clarification, Clarification, Clarification!
How you fix "it" is by defining VERY SPECIFIC PLANS AND GOALS using the scientific process.
Stop privatization of the common government agencies, end the practice of "trickle down theory," cap administration fees, a fair tax structure, end corporate welfare, end the war against the plants and provide Universal Health Coverage. There is to much fragmentation in the government and overlapping labor, duplicating efforts, inefficiency and a poor financial tracking system in the MIC and Police Agencies. The people who were elected to high office to have the "power of the purse" are NOT allowed to audit the FED RES FINANCIAL SYSTEM? WHY? What is being hidden? Theory: Drug running, property confiscations, drug money laundering, fraud and abuse of power is the rational for "hiding" the books. And, this is actually what is going on with many of the military, religious, "secret legal" and government institutions.
The people are tracked and monitored but the financial and functional government systems are not? This is by ridiculous design.
The politics are unnecessarily complicated, seriously, campaign finance reform is absolutely necessary if people want to be REAL ABOUT SOLUTIONS. Citizens United should be undone! Corporations are just tax structures.
Creating Demand for what? Is anyone listening to what the people are demanding or is the idea to force what the people demand? The people want local production, quality products, made with safe material like hemp - NOT PLASTIC. The people want clean safe locally grown organic food, clean water and they want ownership in that, they want ownership in their place of "employment" and a descent living wage!
Support start-up's and competition by breaking up monopolistic corporations and creating laws that favor new small business creation.
Professional Sports is not a NON FOR PROFIT, and the tax payers should not fund that system, they make plenty on advertising.
Churches should not use tithing as a WRITE OFF. If they want to be a business and in the bully pulpit political business, then they can pay accordingly. Churches are an example of how you CAN move populations. The LDS vote 90% Republican, that is just one example of how manipulative "Religion" can be.
This collective world ordered SYSTEM IS "MISGUIDED." Energy, Food and Water are actually free to everyone, they should NOT be owned by MONSANTO / GE or another Privatized Monopolistic Corporation. And, if anyone should know this stuff . . .
Does the planet belong to all the people or to VOO DOO Corporations? L. -
The assumption that debt for nations is like debt for people is misleading in an important way. Nations live much longer. Time is ultimately the dimension that will allow us to generate demand at the much greater scale required to restart global economy. The U.S. and the G 20 should re-build the next generation of infrastructure, healthcare and education systems from top to bottom in every state and province. This debt should be amortized / structured over a greater period of say 300 - 500 years.
