40. Essentially, it is making a run at social security.

It would be better to try and give extra tax credits or a lower % of pay for people making less. It wasn't the best idea to cut that amount for a tax break.

In actuality, if this country would cut the war machine and create infrastructure jobs and open Medicare to all program, then we would be setting ourselves up for a prosperous future... But those at the top of the money piles they have hoarded don't care about common good or sharing. They are the one's who feel entitled. And with the trade policies we have now, we've allowed those at the top to become unaccountable to a single country.

I really think that we need to re-examine wealth as a whole and how we value life, land, and the quality of these items. I don't know how we collectively begin to try and change the idea of what is "value"? We are all taught from a very early age what the power of money is and what "rich" is supposed to look like.

We have amazing technologies, very smart people, and there is no good reason to me why people's natural inclinations are not being pursued for the betterment of society. We can't keep up buying shit and making the world a garbage pile. It doesn't make sense for people to "work" so much for basic needs and survival. It doesn't make sense to keep doing things in this manner, however it's really hard to get people to think in an entirely different way than they have been taught. Those with all their fancy degrees in economics, finance , and business have been taught based on theory and modern practices.

I'm not sure what a practical living experience should be valued at, implemented, or work on a global level that doesn't exploit people. I do know what would look like a healthy life for me and for most people. I'm not sure how we get to that look? I do know we should try to get there. I know we deserve it for ourselves and our future and our children's future.
