I feel like I've been in the grip of huge dreams my entire adult life, but I've never posessed them- THEY have POSSESSED ME.
Well, on Day #32 or so of the Hunger Strike, as I was lugging my 5o lbs of stuff the 50 or so blocks to the Capitol - bing, there it was - I HAVE A DREAM.
I HAVE A DREAM
I have a dream that -
- Congress will cut $200B from defense and re-allocate it to PeaceBuilding internationally;
- We will rise up to cut carbon emissions 80% by 2020 thereby saving the Glaciers and staving off the 39' sea level rise and displacement / drowning of 600 million people;
- We will replace our value of things, and replace it with a valuing of people;
- We will embrace the poor of the world and eliminate poverty by 2020;
- We will heal the earth planing many millions of new trees and fully protecting existing forests - rain and otherwise;
- We will stabilize world population at 8 billion or less through humane pre-emptive measures;
- We will restore the world's fisheries;
- We will aggressively de-charter or re-charter corporations so as to eliminate their murderious sociopathic destruction;
- And so on.
