Reply #94: Instead of Top Down Economy, We Need To Look at Bottom Up

[Demeter]

We start with the lowly citizen. Does every inhabitant have food, shelter, medical care? Education, clothing? Do they get out and vote? Do they have a job--not an income, but a job: something meaningful and requiring effort, rewarding to the person, and useful to the greater society?

Do children have childcare, when needed by their parents? Do orphans find families? Do the elderly live a life worth living? Do the disabled have lives, or are they merely out of sight and out of mind?

Did anybody say anything about money, there? No.
