Thank you. Your engagement is more valuable than you know. I’m afraid that I didn’t say what I wanted to say. Not clearly. Someday I’ll be able to enunciate better. But what holds me back, what keeps me from putting a fine point on my goals- is that they will be read as a condemnation of the world. And they are, but not a condemnation of people. And if misread as a pointing finger, my third goal goes flat. Show people they are not trapped.
I gave the idea of "simple" capitalism some thought. My comments are neither critiques nor criticsms. Just thoughts.
How I see what you are saying is kinda like basketball. (How and why we met years ago.)
1. The game of basketball has many levels to it. In its simples for its a kids game and its most advanced form its a billion dollar industry filled with the largest and most athletically gifted humans to walk the face of the earth.
2. There are rules to the game and the business of basketball.
3. There are a variety of ways you can participate, even after your playing days are done.
4. But regardless of your place in the game, the higher you go the faster the pace and competition becomes.
5. The great part about it, you can enjoy the game of basketball at any level or simply as a spectator.
Capitalism is a game. The difference from basketball is I think life requires you to participate at some level. The similarities to basketball is that you can choose how you participate, as long as you understand that your level of participation will determine the outcome.
You’re 100% on top of it. I agree with you. Id add that it takes all kinds to give depth and meaning. I also have a response to this but I have to think it through…these comments have helped me sharpen my thoughts!
I am glad I asked the question. And I am even more glad you took the time to answer the question.
I will take time to digest "simple capitalism" and follow up with questions.

Make sense?
