The time for change has come. The equality of men and women and the races, and social and economic justice, are the requisites for world peace. And world peace is inevitable.
A step towards achieving those goals is making quality health care available and affordable to all Americans.
The world's greatest philosphers and thinkers agree and have taught that the resources of this planet are abundant enough to distribute equitably. The old world order institutions were built on monopolizing by and distributing resources to a few wealthy elite and exploiting the underclasses.
Every culture had its ruling class, middle class, and lower class -- which was always made up of exploited indigenous peoples and ethnic groups who were without power and prestige.
Some politicians and their constituents want to maintain the status quo, they are fearful that changing to an equitable distribution system will jepordize their wealthy, priviledged positions. In simple terms, they haven't learned to share.
I am optimistic despite our history, firmly believing that the time has come when people's hearts and minds will change voluntarily, because it is the right thing to do.
