Hope springs eternal . . . we have trouble here in Canada getting the debate shows to include the Green Party. What are they afraid of, do you think?

Linne, I stopped by and gave this a read. It’s great in theory and yes we need a party that actually cares about the people, the environment and a real economy. However, I do see problems with implementing the plan as stated. One of the problems centers on the issue of full employment then later calls for a reduction in the military. During the past decade if you separate the military (and government jobs) from the private sector jobs then we have been losing jobs every year, a lot of jobs. For a country (the US) that no longer makes any thing the question I have is how do you create jobs for every person, good quality jobs at that without ruining the environment by producing things that deplete our natural resources.
It’s a good place to start and I hope the article sparks some serious debate that starts to move us in the direction of a better world for all.
I am sorry I don’t have the time to read this Linne but thank you for sharing it with us all 🙂
