If our country was a living body, it would be so dead. Living bodies tax the rich. The wealthy stomach that consumes ALL food, distributes nearly 100% of that food to every cell so all can survive and contribute to the societal whole. We don't have to be that drastic but it is a model that works.
The world's richest 0.001% now control 3x as much wealth as the entire bottom half of humanity combined.
56,000 wealthy individuals have more than roughly 4 billion people.
Read that back.

Basics:
In nature, organisms compete to survive
In nature, cells cooperate to survive as large organisms
When cooperating, cells are not permitted to harm other cells
In successful human societies, laws should not allow people to harm others
Don't vote for anyone who creates laws that harm others.

Governing by ego
But gun control activist Shannon Watts was less impressed, writing: “I’m going to do pull-ups while wearing my Sunday finest? JUST HIRE SOME F***ING AIR TRAFFIC CONTROLLERS.”

It is just shocking how utterly focused trump is on his own ego rather than the good of the people. He is a walking violation of the oath of office

Jane Goodall was a one-of-a-kind treasure to the world!
I was lucky enough to be able to thank her personally when our paths crossed not long ago.
Thanks again, Ms. Goodall. You will be missed. ♥️

One of the bittersweet things about moving: my husband had to paint over my cherished quote wall. It is requiring more coats than he realized: "The quote wall is not going out easy. Good ideas just won’t go away!" Made my day!

Do you think heaven is refusing to take these jokers?
Funny how the rapture keeps getting rescheduled.
Also, they are:
-Wrong about the end of the world.
-Wrong about climate change.
-Wrong about healthcare.
-Wrong about women’s rights, LGBTQ rights, voting rights.
And yet, they still insist they should be in charge.

Frankly, Trump is impossible to intellectualize for anyone. That's what happens when you face a really evil moron.
The relaunch of my column Angry Black Lady Chronicles is today! It's super gay.
Trump’s Second Term Hits Different Now That I'm Out—Opinion
LGBTQ+ people are a Project 2025 target. Coming out didn’t make Trump’s second term more dangerous—it made it impossible to intellectualize away.

Religion is often used as a cover to persuade some people to do evil things and call them good.

Agreed. We probably need to start with the idea that morality is a human construct and not fixed in any way.

Donald J Trump: Poster boy of corruption
"Last time I went after them, they gave me $16 Million Dollars. This one sounds even more lucrative.”
Bowing down to a bully never works.
And we can’t become numb to this corruption in plain sight.

They voted for a con man who lies about everything, which means they have no idea what he will do today or tomorrow. The only thing you know for certain is it will be in his best interest, he will lie about it, make it all about himself, and may change his mind the next day.
