Is there a group interested in solving 1 problem at a time? Through cooperation and inclusion, we can increase the qualitiy of our lives.

In India an aspiring family is earning $3200 per year. In the US $50,000 is not even close to being secure and comfortable.

Our rental expenditures are completely out of line. It is time to stop being treated as Cash Cows. In India they do not mistreat their cows but here if we cannot pay dearly we are swept under the earth for others that are unthinking about the consequences of this continuing. enough

In India middle class families do have medical care for an extreme fraction of our expenses. Here we spend $15,000 of our $50K income on medical insurance.

We have a bunch of bobble heads telling us what kind of auto insurance is best. that is another $2,000 off of $50K. Looking at the gross revenue of just auto insurance companies we are looking at an average $1500 per car fro 225 million cars.

Each and every worker must pay after tax income to get to and from work. Which averages around $10,000/yr. the owners of companies and their officers get a free ride, free insurance, free gas, free repairs, and oh by the way we throw in a cell phone for good measure. All businesses pay for shipping and recieving. while business owners live close to work. [[[ Workers must take from their after tax income to pay for just getting to work. ]]]

We are for the most part more valuable than the bosses transportation, all shipping and recieving. Are we idiots not to desire to get a Cheap ride to and from work. Saving at the bare minimum of $5200 real US dollars for every worker is possible without government or mega corporate economies of scale dogma. May I introduce [Modular Community Transit Systems] that are run by communities without any subsidy from the government. They are paid off in 4-8 months, with communities being able to have a community chest that is not controlled by the governmemnt. The running costs are elastic and $1 per traveled mile can easily go towards the community based operations of these transit systems.

Our wealth is being taken from us in very deviant + systematic ways. We need to stand up and demand that we are part of that transaction base.

65% of all oil is consumed by our land based rolling stock. enough already. attempting to corner the market on oil supplies and paying in real lives and the governments treasury.

We are being told to sit and grin at the traffic congestion from noted universities. They only do work if they are subsidized from corporations and the government. They insist that we are not funding un-working initiatives never do they write about real solutions.

We do not owe corporations or governemnts, our wealth, we deserve some real dignity already to come out and say we already earn enough money stop taking it away from us in $ forms that leave us with nothing.

I believe that we do not need more jobs. We need to have 1 parent home for our children, we need to have a lifestyle that is not frought with all sorts of monolithic insurance expenses, government taxation that is not increasing our standards of living.

It is time to relax and enjoy life [not] to be a Cash Cow for governments, Insurance companies, Oil corps. and we need to put into action simple formulas of living. For instance traffic congestion can be relieved by utilizing mathmetical games that forth graders can understand. No longer should we be in this just for ourselves.
