14. The two most important things we need to keep having conversations about are ALEC & Citizens United.

Keep bringing home the facts, the results and consequences of which people need to understand. Our system has been purposefully hijacked. We won't have control over any of these issues if we live in ignorance of them or cheerlead candidates that CHOOSE to ignore them. These things are undermining any and all of the good of decades, a dismantling of structure.

Next time you look to wealthy benefactors and their charity, remember wonderful things result from governance that honors human rights and empowers people. When we look to politicians and where their efforts have been tells us what their words simply cannot and do not. Money is a tool that's being used craftily to disempower, sometimes in the guise of charity, & certainly through political manipulation.

Exploitation to win profits tells you everything you need to know. What do we empower? Do those we empower align with our values?

K & R! & TY for a much needed understanding.
