What are the 3 largest mistakes the world allowed? 1. Thinking that capitalism is the fastest solution for progress, whereas China uses government seed money to boost progress. Unlimited money (quantitative easing) to those who already have enough. 2. Giving companies more rights than humans. Allow them to commit “societal crimes” in pursuit of increased profits. Also, “shrivel” society by outsourcing production abroad. 3. Allow “aggregators” to become overlords. - Aggregating data to make us controllable. It is my data, not theirs to sell - Aggregating votes on company boards by those who just invest *MY* pension money. It is my vote and not theirs. - aggregating data to sell to me. I do not want to be naked as to what I buy and consume. I want my privacy!

When privacy is not the default, it becomes the exception rather than the rule. You shouldn’t have to opt-in to privacy by opting out of tracking. advocacy.consumerreports.org…

President Ronald Reagan's final speech was a love letter to immigrants: 'Anybody from any corner of the world can come to America to live and become an American. We draw our people, our strength, from every country and every corner of the world.'

Dangerous time when our country is led by those who will lie about anything, backed by those who will believe anything, based on information from media sources that will say anything. Americans must break out of that bubble and seek truth.
