    People ask how we can afford Medicare for all, steps to reverse climate change, a living wage, good schools? The question should be how can we afford not to pursue these? The cost of inaction will be far greater.

        the answer, of course, is that we have a fiat currency model, and thus federal spending can fund anything it wants by creating the funds required. but you know that. so why don't you just say it?

        The sooner we figure this out, the better we will be. We do it step by step, just like everything else we have always had to do. We just have to do the very best that we can. We have much intelligence in this country. Yes, I know it's hard to believe.

        Amassing wealth just to have it is crippling our economy and hindering our progress as a species. The whole reason we progressed from small, single-family hunter gathering tribes to communities was to share our wealth and knowledge. We can't let the greedy move us backwards.

        Where have you been for the 8 years Obama was in office? Did you call for his impeachment as he expanded our wars and started new ones, or do you just oppose Trump?
