Comments on: Reboot America http://listics.com/200812274589 “History may only rarely be written by the losers, but it is always written by the writers.” -- David Weinberger Fri, 29 Jul 2011 08:22:49 +0000 hourly 1 By: JH http://listics.com/200812274589/comment-page-1#comment-61365 JH Wed, 31 Dec 2008 23:41:19 +0000 http://listics.com/?p=4589#comment-61365 <i>We need to reexamine the insane emphasis we have put on “business,” the reduction in support for our mutual welfare. We need great programs of public investment, and sound regulation where now there is outlawry. monopoly, and market manipulation. We need to freeze the assets of all who benefited from the Bush giveaways, tear down the wall of shame he erected on our southern border, nationalize the energy industries, and in general do things entirely ddiffernet from the way they are done today. We need to look to Europe and Asia for working models and follow their lead. We need to return to the forty hour work week, or why not thirty-five? We need to assure income and health care and education for all.</i> IMO this is so right. There's nothing natural about the way things have evolved over the past 30 or 40 years, and North American society has become, I think, profoundly anti-human.
