Democracy doesn’t jsut happen, but complacency does
Richard Dreyfuss Sr. Advisor Oxford University on Democracy has been making something of himself. Here is an amazing video of him clearly explaining what has happened to America and unlike most of the bobbing craniums on TV, he explains in no uncertain terms what to do about saving the precious “twinkle” of democracy that once defined the miracle of America.
All of our treasured conspiracies, bad guys, left and right wings are quickly dispatched leaving no one to blame for the fix we are in but ourselves.
Though the solution is just as simple it is much more difficult to implement; we each must renew our understanding of how democracy works and take responsibility for it’s survival rather than expecting the governments, schools and corporations to do it for us.
So let’s all forget the name-calling and ignore the media puppets, start acting like grownups and get back to the hard work of building a world that our children deserve.
