Capitalism - Feudalism without the Kings
Tax the Rich
Tax the Rich
Website Wednesday
Not feeling optimistic. Obama is cracking down on medical marijuana? What? Just where does this guy stand? Only with the healthy and the rich?
My mom got a call from Obama headquarters asking for money. They told her that she could pay by credit card right away. She told them to have Obama ask Wall Street for the money since he had done so much for them. They didn't like that. Feisty mom.
But then I found this website:
http://www.good.is/
which has been around since 2006 and says of itself: GOOD is a collaboration of individuals, businesses, and nonprofits pushing the world forward. Since 2006 we've been making a magazine, videos, and events for people who give a damn.
It's nice to find people who give a damn about the world. They may be naive and be trying to turn us into Martin Buber's ultimate human relationship, I and thou, and away from the cold human contact of I and it. (Google Martin Buber I and thou and it'll all become clear.)
But I'd rather have people listening to the Robert Kennedy quote (traceable to Shaw) of: Some people see things as they are and say why? I dream things that never were and say why not? than listening to the line from the Miniver Cheevy poem: Miniver sighed for what was not,/And dreamed, and rested from his labors; (Edwin Arlington)
GOOD is informative and fun to read. You'll learn about current stuff like that black lab who helps his deaf sister, or why Occupy Wall Street needs friends among Democrats, or last nights' GOP debate.
There are community feedback articles like What would you have on your bucket list? or Where do you want to see America in 10 years?
They have a lot of informational charts (ex., women's health) with sources, slide shows (ex., marginalized religions) - I LOVE slide shows, and videos (ex., Khan Academy) - and I love KA also.
So take a walk around GOOD. There's a lot to see and read. After all, we all need some good in our lives. Enjoy.
