WE DEMAND A WORLD OF UNIVERSAL ABUNDANCE, NOT WEALTH FOR THE FEW AND WANT FOR THE MANY

 WE DEMAND A WORLD OF UNIVERSAL ABUNDANCE, NOT WEALTH FOR THE FEW AND WANT FOR THE MANY


We live in an age of wonder and abundance. Thanks to the wisdom and achievements of the world's 9 million scientists, and the hard work of the world's 3.3 billion workers, we live in an age when everybody can have a life of abundance and even luxury

There is no reason why every family in the world shouldn't have a modern, structurally sound house or apartment, large enough to comfortably accommodate their entire family

There is no reason why every one of those homes shouldn't have a full set of living room, bedroom and dining room furniture, central heating, air conditioning, hot and cold running water, electricity, telephone/cable service, internet access at least one 3 piece bathroom (toilet, sink, tub/shower), a kitchen with a stove, oven, microwave, refrigerator and ample pantry space.

There is no reason why every family shouldn't have a computer and every individual a smart phone, and every home a landline, at least one TV set and radio

There's no reason why every rural and suburban family shouldn't have one electric or hybrid car per adult member of the household, and every urban family shouldn't have one car per household and access to 24 hour a day free subway, bus and commuter railroad service

There is no reason why every human being on the face of the planet shouldn't have free, readily available, nondiscriminatory, medical, surgical, dental, optical, psychological, physical and mental rehabilitative care, glasses/contact lenses, hearing aids, dentures and any and all other medical devices

There is no reason why every community on Earth shouldn't have paved roads, water and sewer main service, free trash collection, and 24 hour a day police, fire and ambulance service

There is no reason on Earth why any person should be hungry or homeless

There is no reason on Earth why every able bodied adult should not be able to find work that is well compensated and where they are treated decently, professionally and with respect.

There is no reason why every person on the planet who can't work - due to youth, old age, temporary or permanent disability or pregnancy shouldn't be able to live in comfort with their needs provided for as long as necessary

Or, I should say, there is one reason we don't have all of that, which we deserve and we can and should have right now

We have 3,311 billionaires and 62,483,000 millionaires, glomming up all the wealth produced by the hard work of the world's 3.3 billion workers

So, there's only 62,486,311 selfish greedy people standing between us and universal prosperity

We need to have a word with those guys about that, sooner rather than later

¡AMNISTÍA GENERAL YA! or, the necessity of making a better America, for our immigrant fellow workers and ourselves

  ¡AMNISTÍA GENERAL YA! or, the necessity of making a better America, for our immigrant fellow workers and ourselves   Early in the morning of Tuesday January 7, 2026 in Minneapolis, MN, Renee Nicole Macklin Good, a 37 year old poet and mom of 3 was shot and killed in her family car in her own neighborhood, while trying to avoid a confrontation with a band of armed men. This foul murder was allegedly committed by US Immigration and Customs Enforcement Enforcement and Removal Officer Jonathan Ross (who, of course, is constitutionally presumed innocent until proven guilty in a federal or state court of law, for the record). The video instantly went viral, what happened is quite clear in the court of public opinion, and to any person with functional eyes not willfully blinded by bias and propaganda.   Be that as it may,  according to statements in the media by officers specially trained as firearms instructors, standing in front of a moving car and firing up...

NONUNION TOWN – the fall of the New York City construction unions, 1969-2026

  NONUNION TOWN – the fall of the New York City construction unions, 1969-2026 The City of New York has over 1 million occupied buildings, worth a total of $1.57 trillion dollars, the most valuable pool of real property on the face of the Earth. All of that value is created by New York City’s 400,000 construction workers (the largest construction workforce in America and 4% of this country’s 10 million construction workers). Those buildings are maintained by the city’s 200,000 janitors and stationary engineers, 100,000 security officers and 50,000 hotel workers. Those 750,000 workers maintain these one and a half trillion dollars worth of capital in usable condition, and help keep the city’s 8,000 big landlords wealthy. They don’t get a whole lot in return – 300,000 of those construction workers, 75%, are non union and are paid an average of $20 an hour.   Around a third of those non union workers are paid off the books, with many of those workers being undocumented ...

...AND RUMORS OF WARS - deportations, tariffs and the sea lanes of the South China Sea - a world war may be coming, can we stop it before it starts?

…AND RUMORS OF  WARS –  deportations tariffs and the sea lanes of the South China Sea – a world war may be coming, can we can stop it before it starts?   For the last few years, the Central Military Commission of the Communist Party of China and the United states Department of Defense have been quietly but deliberately preparing for a world war in and around the South  China Sea, the Straits of Taiwan and the island of Taiwan itself   The world’s two main imperialist powers – America and China – have come to conflict for the reasons that imperialist countries always do – conflict over who’s billionaire investors and multinational corporations will get to exploit and plunder the world   China rose rapidly in the last century – from a backwards Third World semi feudal state plundered by every imperialist power to being the world’s leading manufacturing nation (30% of all the manufactured goods on the face of this Earth were MADE IN CHINA) – the br...
