The solution and the integrative strategy that will work to unite the workable, applicable and ethical agendas of the left and right is Monetary Distributism, not re-distribution or the idiocies of Finance capitalism.
By the way you have to like Bernie’s “fire in the belly”, and to the honest and discerning individual Bernie made all of the fine points and distinctions tonight and Hilary has the unfortunate problem of trying to beat the resonating desire for actual change with the generally ineffective strategy of incrementalism. I give Bernie my motto: Transformation first! Rational and ethical regulation….right along with it!
Now if Bernie would only have the discernment to embrace Distributism via a universal Dividend and a retail Discount instead of re-distribution, the leading edge thinking on the banking system with a sovereign public central bank guided and aligned with the concept of Grace as in Gifting and a structural public banking system as Ellen has propounded….he could rally democrats, republicans, independents on both sides of the aisle, college kids, single mothers and even the wives of most republicans….after they saw everybody else getting their dividends….and we could really have change you could believe in.
