18. How about the 12% ? Can we ponder that # also?
This naming and categorizing the general population. Promoting the idea of them needing to take sides etc. is just game that is played. It's all about needing others to take on battles that the rich and privileged people can't take on them selves. The rich and privileged are part of a ever diminishing number in the population. As much as we can ignore that vicious cycle they want us to be in and embrace our commonality, the more we be able to see in ways we can all gain..

The minute we get off the boat and see that we are no better than any other person is that time that power gets released. I hate to preach but I only consider myself a person, the rest of what I am is all subject to change. In time everything is eventually broken apart in one way or another, so why give it any help?

Really I think we should invent some new words and terminology to describe what is taking place here. If we can all figure out how we can have commonality and work together on things then the perpetrators of these myths will be the odd ones out
