71. Possibly the greatest liability for those who don't have great wealth

is the inability to connect with others who are of a like mind. Now the masses can communicate on a massive scale.

I recognize the fact that keyboards can't manufacture physical things but they could organize enough like minded people to be able to turn elections their way regardless of the fact that the mass media is whoring out full time for the powerful rich.

The word needs to be gotten out to all Americans that the rich are abusing and stealing our share of Earth's bounty and that their main propaganda tool is their media. Further, we need to sell the masses on the idea that beliefs should be fact based rather than a collection of "traditional" notions.

The first concrete goal is to not allow the Republicans to gain a majority in the Senate and to do away with the filibuster rules.

The second goal is to return the makeup of the Supreme into a non-partisan, honest, wise group of judges.

The third goal is to get started on the wealth disparity by upping the minimum wage to $15.00

Fourth: Revise the income tax structure demanding by law that the wealthiest individuals start paying a true, proportionate fair share. That would include a inheritance tax that not only helps balance gvt. expenses but takes away the family dynasty problem.
The Constitution should be revised to disallow the money from flowing only to the wealthy and to disallow using money to buy the politicians and judges.

Churches should not be allowed to retain tax free status while they are advocating political positions. The idea of Church Dominion must be squelched in order to retain a good Democratic Government.

Public Schools must be revived from 50 years of attacks by the Right Wing, who only wanted to destroy public education and replace it with the farcical private, i.e. religious and right wing schools of whites.

Government spying on Americans and other Nations must be brought under control.

The National infrastructure needs to be massively rebuilt with the added benefit of providing good paying jobs.

We should work with other Countries to revise the structure of the U.N. so that it might actually function as an effective World Body.

We should stop rubber stamping and equipping Israel. They've be a Nation long enough to make it on their own.

Keeping the environment healthy must always remain a top priority.

Americans need to get up to speed on the philosophy of humanism, applying it's best principles to the way we treat each other.

These are among the things that come to mind as realistic, achievable goals that would vastly improve the quality of life.
