Income Inequity

Wealth inequality underlies all the evils endemic to human civilization. From emperors to czars to capitalist power brokers, the wealthy build economies designed to protect their wealth and property at the inevitable expense of those without competitive resources. In the United States less than one tenth of 1% of the population owns over half the country’s wealth, and they have NOT been concerned about what happens to people economically at the middle or bottom. Nonviolent movements involving aroused citizens have saved democratic governments in many countries. That’s what we need now to address climate heating and the threats posed by nuclear weapons. We need an aroused citizenry. Hopefully you will join a movement that speaks to your values and your hopes for a future lasting, in Native American terms, unto the seventh generation.
