Preventable suffering is both widespread and socially produced.

Early warning systems, care networks, and deliberate policy choices can save lives, but only where a politics of care is actively built and maintained.

Trump/GOP domestic policy clarified.

"It’s not possible for us to take care of day care, Medicaid, Medicare, all these individual things. They can do it on a state basis. We have to take care of one thing: military protection.”

The words above are from Trump.

Trump/GOP domestic policy:
- the Federal government has no responsibility for individual and family benefit programs
- the States alone are responsible for individual and family benefit programs
- taxes are for defense and security spending only

#China is an authoritarian, surveillance state ruled by a one powerful man. That said, the Chinese Communist Party under Xi’s leadership seems to legit try to do its best for the country and people. There are glaring empire tendencies on the downside - thinking of Tibet, Taiwan and the Uyghurs - but on the upside the government/party has lifted a ton of people out of poverty and propelled the country into global tech, automotive, economic and alternative energy leadership roles. Most recently, Chinese President Xi Jinping on Monday called for mobilizing the whole society to actively participate in afforestation, stressing that a sound ecological environment is shared by all and requires the joint efforts of all. Just sayin… Beats the crap outta paying a billion taxpayer dollars to remove US wind energy installations already underway and approving clear cutting of old-growth forests. #environment #DomesticPolicy

“This is the most incompetent, incoherent war[/economic, foreign, and domestic policy/administration] America has fought[/enacted] in the last 100[/250] years, and that’s saying a lot,” Murphy said, with his comments at the Capitol aired on CNN’s NewsNight on Thursday.

A quotation from Franklin Roosevelt

There is no question in my mind that it is time for the country to become fairly radical for a generation. History shows that where this occurs occasionally, nations are saved from revolution.

Franklin Delano Roosevelt (1882-1945) American lawyer, politician, statesman, US President (1933-1945)
Letter (1930-05-12) to John A. Kingsbury
