“ The energy and daring is to resist the noes, until the final yes has been achieved. ”
The rich control our politics to a huge extend. In return they get tax cuts and deregulation. It's been and is an amazing ride for the rich.
~ Jeffrey D. Sachs

We need to defend the interests of those whom we've never met and never will.
Markets cannot meet the needs of the very poor. The desperately poor are not consumers who will create an immediate profit.
