@carolleisa We need to look to the past to help solve modern day problems. Pre-fossil fuels.

What statement is Alabama trying to make? Are they still operating under the "united" banner of the states or not?

@billyjoebowers I agree. And, I feel the same way. I keep saying we can do this the easy way, or the hard way. Why do humans always choose hard.โ˜น๏ธ

More people than I thought are easily conned, and sellouts abound.

@chris I could be fooling myself, but I really don't think I'd sacrifice human freedom and the planet for cash.

@StillIRise1963@mastodon.world avatar

@chris There are. There also may be more of us than we think. I'm disappointed by some people I know as well.

@StillIRise1963@mastodon.world avatar

@chris My husband used to be an investment banker. We left that life because of the priorities and psychopathy of the people involved in that industry. Sometimes, people do leave money behind in search of a more meaningful life.
