Solutions
The party in Denver continues.
I would like to know if anyone can suggest five simple things each of us can do to change the world, no matter what the politicians do, or don't do.
Like carrying a reusable bag to the grocery store, so you don't need either plastic or paper.
Like changing your expectations -- a vehicle should be something dependable, but shouldn't it be something you can afford to repair, rather than replace? What about a printer? What about a television or a cell phone?
Like turning the thinking on ROI upside down. How big a scam, exactly, is the 401K program? How much money are small investors risking / losing, compared to what the same amount of money would have been worth in the (former) pension plan?
Essentials -- what do you need, just to live?
Over at First Draft there's a sort of informal poll on whether cell phones are a staple or a luxury. What sorts of things -- extra-governmental *things* -- do you consider necessities?
