Your points are well taken. They apply even more forcefully to American foreign policy: 2015 Afghanistan, US fighter jets bombed a Doctors Without Borders hospital killing 42. . . But that's not even the beginning. US sanctions in Iraq killed 500,000 children. Asked if it was worth it Madeleine Albright replied "I think that is a very hard choice, but the price, we think, the price is worth it." Let us recall that Iraq had done nothing, nada, to us. Bush II just wanted a long war. But then of course there's Vietnam. Ho Chi Minh, their George Washington, overthrew the brutal French colonial forces. So we killed ~5 Million of them (excluding collateral mayhem throughout that peninsula). And they more than 50,000 of us; a 100 to 1 kill ratio.
The lesson that we must now embrace is that inhumanity anywhere is a threat to all humanity. Mother Earth has not the resources to sustain our lives much longer if we continue to kill each other and rape her.
What I see as the minimal useful action for the US:
–- Constitutional Reset 2024 ---
Supreme Court Crushing OUR Rights Take Back the Court - A3S1:
Judges shall serve on good Behaviour Ergo, shall be fired on bad Behaviour
Revoke False Precedents
-$s are not Speech nor Corps people-
That rot bred present fascism!
The Fix: Public Funding of Elections
$200 Voter Vouchers - Nothing Else!
DC will work for us & our children:
-Tackle Climate Chaos at Scale-CO2e Tax $400/ton Funding UBI
-Market Forces Drive Solar/Wind
-Initial UBI ~$1,000/month
WWII Level Funding, Taxes, Effort
-42% GDP = 8T$/yr for 5 years
-95% Max TaxRate over 4M$/yr
-Gift Solar to US & Global South
Why? Gotta Save the Whole World
Make Friends, Not War
DC will pass: iM4A, Union Rights, $25 Min Wage tied to productivity, Free pre-K through University,...

I am Tom@TomWellsForCongress.com
Great list!!! Add school funding but with local control. I mean a MASSIVE infusion of bucks to start the process of educating the electorate.
America spends more money on education than most other country's.
It's how the teaching is done not money.
No thanks! to a lot of that list.
I welcome discussion - I find different perspectives to be learning opportunities. Be specific. 352-514-5467
