SHRED's JournalBernie regarding Hillary on the issue differences between them
Bernie Sanders: I think that the business model of Wall Street is fraud. And I think these guys drove us into the worst economic down turn in the modern history of America. And I think theyre at it again. I believe when you have so few banks with so much power you have to not only re-establish GlassSteagall Act but youve got to break them up. That is not Hillary Clintons position. I believe that our trade policies with NAFTA, CAFTA, PNTR with China have been a disaster. I am helping to lead the effort against the Trans-Pacific Partnership. That is not Hillary Clintons position. I believe, along with Pope Francis, and almost all scientists, that climate change is threatening this planet in horrendous ways and that we have to be aggressive in transforming our energy system away from fossil fuel, and defeat, and defeat the Keystone pipeline, that is not Hillary Clintons position. I believe that as opposed to my Republican colleagues who want to cut Social Security, I believe we should expand Social Security by lifting the cap on taxable income. Thats not Hillary Clintons position. I believe that weve got to raise the minimum wage over a period of several years to $15 an hour. Not Hillary Clintons position. I voted against the war in Iraq. Hillary Clinton voted for it.

What is a Democratic Socialist?
The stark differences

Because Bernie cares!
And he's not afraid to call the sonzabitches out for the greedy pigs that they are. Oh the Repubs will wrap themselves in the flag but the good Senator from Vermont will be the one busy working for we the people.
Last year Bernie fighting for our vets:
Senate blocks Dems' bill boosting vets' benefits
Democrats noted that more than two dozen veterans groups supported the legislation. But Republicans said they still favor helping veterans while also wanting to be prudent about federal spending.

Decentralized green energy
I favor increasing rebates and tax incentives for the home owner to install rooftop solar/PV and stay away from pouring huge tax dollars into more centralized power production.
Decentralized energy is better for the economy, it spreads the wealth, better for the environment, creates far more good paying jobs than centralized power, and liberates the people from their ever increasing energy bills.
What's stopping this?
The special interests in the privatized energy sector?
On edit: When I say "stopping" for instance the California rebate is no longer and frankly the subsidies could be a lot more in my opinion.
What A Shaman Sees In A Mental Hospital
I experienced what is described in this article when I was a young man. They kept telling me I was sick but I knew different inside.
In the shamanic view, mental illness signals the birth of a healer, explains Malidoma Patrice Somé. Thus, mental disorders are spiritual emergencies, spiritual crises, and need to be regarded as such to aid the healer in being born.
What those in the West view as mental illness, the Dagara people regard as good news from the other world. The person going through the crisis has been chosen as a medium for a message to the community that needs to be communicated from the spirit realm. Mental disorder, behavioral disorder of all kinds, signal the fact that two obviously incompatible energies have merged into the same field, says Dr. Somé. These disturbances result when the person does not get assistance in dealing with the presence of the energy from the spirit realm.
