Wisdom vs. politics

  So we elect folks to govern the country. What we expect and what they do are worlds apart. They get all wrapped up in playing games on the world map, like what country to invade next. Which one of us called up or wrote and asked them to kill a few hundred thousand people somewhere in the world in their name; so they could sleep better at night?

  Here, from our neck of the woods, the neck that seems to be chopped off from the other Washington, here we have Fran & David Korten and YES! magazine. Just one article will give you a taste of the difference in thought process between those looking out for all of us, and the planet, and those who think we sent them to D.C. to cuddle up with the NRA, AIPAC, WALL ST. execs, and all the "good ol' boys" in the military-industrial-corporate club.
