We're Doing it Wrong - There must be a way to overcome greedy ignorant narcissistic sociopaths

[HughBeaumont]

5. 1. Treat Horatio Alger as "pie-in-the-sky" and not "The Rule".

2. Get it instilled that making a living with a living wage, a pension and stability is far more fruitful in the long run than "get-rich-quick" and a more probable and reasonable solution than relying on "STARTYEROWNBUSINESS/BEYEROWNBOSS!" as the cure-all for America's chronic joblessness.

3. ACE Marty Feldstein's HBS Laissez-Fail CRAP from our business schools. The reason corporations are ruthless and uncaring is because this little bastard's right-wing teachings have been poisoning student's minds since the 1980s and they go on to RUN these corporations . . . into the ground. We're creating a generation of short-term, profit-happy Hank Kravises, Michael Milkens, Lloyd Bankfiends and Jamie Dimons and it's KILLING us.

4. Guaranteed basic income combined with maximum wage. Nobody NEEDS more than a billion dollars when there are people with degrees fighting for former high-schooler jobs.

5. Universal Health Care.

6. End ridiculously expensive and painfully useless folly wars and have the military help rebuild our badly crumbling infrastructure. I can't think of a better plan for national security than that.

7. Shore up public transportation to European standards and get some goddamned high speed RAIL in this country.

8. Reinstate Glass-Stegall.

9. Reinstate The Fairness Doctrine.

10. Equal rights for all humans.

This is in no particular order, but it's a start.
