I really appreciate that she also didn't diminish the suffering and loss men are going through, in relation to how women are alternatively being exploited to higher degrees due to the shifts in the economy we all know about.

[@scottastell9415]

The Greens are that Party but in your non Democracy their candidates weren't on the ballot in most States as the officials of the old Parties didn't want them as a choice voters could take.

[@worldcitizenra]

@@scottastell9415 - Not True. Greens had ballot access in 38 states, plus the District of Columbia, In addition, Greens could be included as write-in candidates in 7 additional states. Only 5 states precluded ballot access by Greens. The states in which Greens had ballot access represented 508 electoral college votes. Yes, in many states Democrats and Republicans made it difficult for the Greens to get ballot access, but in the end Dems and Reps were not able to prevent it. That said, out of the thousands of political offices being voted on across the country, the Greens ran 168 candidates in total. Having only 168 candidates in total nationwide after 40 years in existence is not an indication that Greens are a viable political party. What it indicates is a group of social elitists who don't know how to organize for political power.

[@worldcitizenra]

@raywarner3 - The best way you can support development of a viable third party is to either run for local office yourself or convince someone else to run for local office under a third-party banner. Whether it is a worker-oriented party, family-oriented party, Democratic Socialist, Greens, or any other. Get candidates for at least half of the offices on the ballot in every election. As soon as that third party is a known political power locally, start getting on the ballot for state elected offices with occasional candidates for the US House of Representatives. Putting up only 150 to 170 candidates across the country in each election for all of the thousands of elected political offices, as the Greens have done over their existence, is not going to create a viable third party.

Given all the "understanding" being offered here, why would such a "brilliant educator" casually, OMIT this FACT? Why would he claim that "rationing" stopped inflation in the 40's and "wage and price controls" stopped it in the 70's? Other than the 95% inflation that occurred between 1860 and 1865, the 40s produced 70% inflation, and the 70s yielded 113%, which more than doubled the 367% inflation of the 39 to 79, total inflation rate. BTW the Federal Reserve Note is a "debt instrument" and being "legal tender" rather than "lawful money", you are using a debt instrument to discharge debt. If not having ENOUGH thinking time is a problem, imagine what not having the facts or the correct understanding of the words contribute to it? The "people" understand the effects, and voted accordingly, ( and democratically ) in a non-democratic "constitutional republic"...but they still have no clue as to the "cause" of those effects.
