WE STUPID! STOP IT! a HUMAN ECONOMY INSTEAD
Is the Economy .. the SYSTEM of VALUE exchange I have been trying to develop, but HUMAN VALUE vs $
We have NO CONTROL of $. But if we started our own "SHARE, INVEST, and TRADE SYSTEM" where we share our HUMAN Value .. could we not build a whole new way of living? We could add insurance in there too. HARD .. but with all our expertise shared WE CAN DO IT!
Economy .. do you know what it is?

a TRADE System? nah that's money.
Is it a whole collection of ways of sharing and trading between humans?
I also do not know what we call democracy, communism, kingship (That's monarchy right?) etc. Done really KNOW anything. I think I am pretty damn INTELLIGENT .. hah! I know nothing!! Guess there s a reason why we specialize in our expertise area. Bt that is exactly where we went WRONG with say HEALTH. Health is not cutting out cancer (a. Surgeon) Health is connecting all we know to create GOOD quality of life. You may be cancer free but with no job and tons of medical debt .. you will NOT be heathy! STRESS kills! Maybe this is why we really UNDERSTAND nothing!
Wanted to know if canada is way worse living, than USA .. yes? screws my Phila hopes!!
I guess this great TAKE on what IS "poverty", quality of life .. makes finding out hard!

Define “struggling”.
I officially live in poverty in the United States.
However…
I have a place to live. I share a bedroom with my two-and-a-half-year-old grandson, but our house is warm in the winter. We rarely need anything more than a long-sleeved shirt inside the house.
I have indoor plumbing. I turn a faucet handle and drinkable water comes out. I have a flush toilet.
I have electricity. I flick a switch and lights come on at night.
I have a car. It’s 22 years old and is approaching 400,000 miles (approx. 640,000 km), but it runs well. I’m the original owner, so I know it’s been maintained well.
I have a refrigerator. We can stretch our food dollar. Our nearest grocery store is about 20 miles (approx. 32 km) away.
I have air conditioning in my house. Temperatures regularly go over 120°F (approx. 50°C) in the summer and A/C makes it bearable.
I have enough food most of the time. My grandson always has enough food.
I have a microwave oven.
I have a television. I don’t have access to TV signals, but I choose not to pay for cable TV. There is nothing on TV that interests me. I pay for Netflix.
I have a computer.
I have Internet access. My cell phone is the only Internet connection in my area, but I can still access Quora!
I have a smart cell phone. I have access to the total collected knowledge of humankind in my pocket. I can even make phone calls with it!
Am I “struggling”? By United States standards, yes. By the standards of the majority of humans on planet Earth, not even close.
Original Question: “If the economy of the United States is so great, why do so many people still seem to be struggling?”
WE expect too much? I just feel so bad for my kids. WE were not rich but had 2 weed vacation .. but we rented apt and gave up ANY fun during rest of year. Those wer so much better times than ij Canad NOW!
Stock Exchange? Instead of corporate "casino", we VALUE HUMANS and their talents and skills!

Yeah sure REALLY STUPID HUMANS, get off the PLANET. 👿 You killed HEY GO!! the best ever HUMAN Biz!

This makes me so sad .. Hey go saved me in Pandemic USA BORDER SHUT DOWN isolation. I would have paid 20$ a shot if I had it .. so it failed and the EVIL Boitches who were MOST SELFISH and self absorbed paid NOTHING WE THINK!
Financial System, Banking, $$ .. how about our own BLOCKCHAIN Ledgers? Human LIFE accounts?
Stupid Crypto. You are just thinking $$ with a different name. SEE what I mean we are STUPID! Open our mind .. see in a new way. Bitcoin and all is a dumb way to rename a dollar. YOU NEED AN ENTIRELY NEW SYSTEM!
We take the co-op idea, but expand it like an old pioneer village general store! Humans TRADED too!
The $ was just an easier way to trade .. since it allowed TIME/ SPACE to be expanded. It did not need to be take these eggs I get your broccoli, but could be later and further trading. So what is missing in crypto is the VILLAGE .. the system of VALUE
Think of a pioneer village. People shared big jobs like barn raisings! ). ) People traded or shared whenever they could.
An Economy has JOBS! We create NEW careers in our TOTAL HUMAN HEALTH Economy!

Total Human Health is also a new ORDER SYSTEM replacing government and its LAWS.
We only need ONE commandment. Br a FAIR decent HUMAN. A greedy person willing to harm others or earth is NOT HUMAN. A REAL Human cares about his HUMAN FAMILY and our HUMAN Home.
