Insanity :)

Long ago doctors used Penicillin for Pneumonia

Now most bacteria are resistant to Penicillin - So most doctors have stopped using Penicillin for pneumonia. They use other Antibiotics.

When it comes to implementing and enacting Public Policies the ground game has changed.

So, why are we using the same OLD tactics to get things done ?
Obviously we are not going to "win" the game.
 - That is like using Penicillin for Pneumonia - The patient will die :(

So how can WE THE PEOPLE get the politicians to listen to us ?

Let us look at the facts on the ground (I know these facts are NOT FAIR - But we have to remember that these ARE the facts.

• 95% of the time the person who wins an election is the person who has the most money.
• And only 0.01% of us have the kind of money the Politicians want.
• Therefore Politicians are forced to hob nob with the 0.01% and make them and the multinational Corporations happy.  Otherwise THEY are going to loose THEIR job.

Even the so called SMALL Political PACS that we have  DO NOT have the kind of money the Politicians need.  So the politicians will "listen" to these small PACs ONLY IF the policy is okay with the 0.01% of us who are very rich and the large multinational Corporations.

Conclusion - Money IS NO LONGER our Strength


And those $5 donations - think about what happens to them - they will be used to buy advertisements in the Main Stream Media - currently owned by 5 Large Corporations.  So basically YOU made these large Corporations and their owners richer.  And YOU lost the $5 that you need to buy food for your family :(

So WHAT IS OUR STRENGTH ?

Our strength lies in NUMBERS

That may be why there is a constant attempt by some to divide us

Conservatives vs Liberal

Muslims vs Christians

Male workers vs Female workers

Pro choice vs Pro life

Union workers vs Non Union workers  etc etc etc

For the first time in the US we have been brainwashed into thinking that a person with a different ideology is "OUR ENEMY" 

Not a fellow American with a different point of view

We in turn play in to this theme by demonizing folks that have a different point of view.  And this theme gets reinforced.

We HAVE TO CHANGE this division NOW

We have to learn to accept that 

a. We have different Values

b. That a person with a different set of Values is NOT our Enemy. But just a Fellow American

c. We have to make a PERSONAL pledge to actually LISTEN to one another

d. Learn how to SPEAK to others using THEIR own language

And did you know that we are BORN with certain ideological traits.  This fact is being used to divide us.

As we begin to understand each other's point of view, negative emotions like Anger, Hate, Fear, Frustration will be replaced with POSITIVE emotions like Love, Compassion and Respect...

One by one as we unite, we will become more and more powerful.

And with that power the 99% can once again get the politicians to implement Public Policies that will benefit us all.

As medical doctors I believe that this is the biggest Public Health problem we are encountering.  

Also I believe our political PACS should use these resources to #UniteTheUSA - trying to educate the masses of what is happening to us.

Trying to support Politicians is NOT going to get us any where from a Public Policy point of view
