America has forgotten it is American workers who built America
09/28/2023
Entry level tier wages for auto workers at $17 an hour in 2022 as the UAW union goes on strike in 2023. At $34,000 a year entry level young auto workers make less than the $35,000- 40,000 a year for families set as the Federal Poverty Level by the Department of HHS. Lincoln and TR-FDR would see this as outrageous as American workers built American factories and America since the Industrial Revolution. America has forgotten its workers and worker's families, worker's children. Two thirds of children with the vast majority from the workers families not able to pass ACT reading comprehension at the 4th grade, and 50 % of retired people having zero savings. Not the America of Lincoln or TR-FDR.

How debt can suddenly sink firms as business swings lead to a drying up of business.
10/14/2008
It can happen to GM and Chrysler, and a near miss for Ford and Morgan Stanley. Goldman Sachs is only pretending that it did not have a near miss after Lehman's collapse. The same can happen to an architectural firm Yamasaki as corporate real estate market collapses in 2009. The volatility and nervousness in financial markets in 2008 that shut companies out of credit markets and led to the government led auto industry bailout with planned bankruptcy filings.

We took a different way to help millions around the world build educated informed mindsets that affects and shapes their lives. For a future that is open, global and digital, with everyone having access to high quality information. We believe in the renewal of America, renewal of Europe, the renewal of India, the rest of Asia, Latin America and Africa. The renewal of our supply chains, health, education, infrastructure, as we rebuild our countries after the pandemic. Literacy and knowledge we believe cannot thrive and grow in a world of web bots, web crawlers, or AI. This requires human curiosity, human learning, and human imagination. We take as inspiration the saying- “One has to be free, and as broad as sky. One has to have a mind that is crystal clear, only then can truth shine in it.” Every contribution whether big or small is precious- in this crisis and ahead.
