Theoretically, if he is right and what we need is a write down (Jubilee)
Then how do we pull that trigger? Whisper in the Presidents' ear 'executive order' the day before he leaves the White House?

(6,002 posts)like Hedges & Chomsky, among others call it for what it is, inverted totalianarism. TY for pointing out that PCR served under Reagan and helped with the BS trickle down...maybe when reality shows the error of their ways some actually do love country and not what it has become.

(6,002 posts)the issue, and it can be dealt with once we get past left/right, and understand this is the defining issue of our time. We either deal with it or suffer the consequences of unbridled greed.
