They say the rich give to charity, this post says some just pretend and hide their money

Trickle down economics is a fantasy. Here we learn that the founder of google is skipping on his charitable donations which is required by law. We learn that the Larry Page foundation finds accounting gimmicks to pretend they are giving to charity while they park their money. We need structural change to fix our economy and our society.

Man is not equipped to deal with the rapid changes in climate change

Rapid and massive flooding of urban areas will only get worse with Climate Change. Houston is a prime example. The passed new building codes and budgeted billions for flood control in 2017. Tropical storm Imelda which hit 2 weeks ago shows that their efforts have not helped much. Houston has experienced one 500 year flood and 2 one hundred year flood since 2016. The cost of inaction or slow action will be much more. We need structural change.

Well informed people will make the right decisions. Unfortunately in our country today we have 5 major corporations who report news based on their corporate interest and their bottom line, instead of facts and real sentiment. We need structural change.

Student debt is bad for the future of America

Massive student debt has put our young people under too much pressure and is causing harm to the society. One fourth of millennials today battle mental illness. We need structural change and free colleges to compete with the rest of the planet.

We can’t let a few rich ideologues dictate how the rest of us live

If we want to live in a democracy, we need transparency and fair elections. Today a few billionaires fund conservative organizations to work against the will and interest of the people. In this post we learn about Bradley foundation that funds school choice, which diverts public funds to religious schools which is against the constitution.

Obama promised us hope and sided with Wall Street – We need to learn from that

Learning from history will help us move forward. We need structural change. We tried staying with neoliberal policies of the Clinton and Obama presidencies and we got Trump. Nothing short of structural change will help us create a new future.

A millionaire who grew up poor invested in a poor community in Florida and 21 years later, all children attending school graduate with honors, most go to college on full scholarships.Crime has plummeted and property values have risen. Free daycare elevates children in this community. Investing in our children and citizens creates a better world for all of us.
