Biden's multi-trillion infrastructure spending plans for renewal of America
03/30/2021
US president Biden is pushing ahead with infrastructure spending on a big scale. He no longer seeks support from Republicans as he does not want to see the plans shrink. He is able to do this because the American people now have new perceptions about the role of government. They see it as indispensable in trade, global supply chains, protecting American technology, and in keeping America ahead with the latest infrastructure, skills development with education, healthcare that keeps Americans healthy.

Pope Francis and the call "not to return to the false securities of the political and economic systems we had before the pandemic."
11/27/2020
Two crises back to back in 2010 and 2020 which set back the working class, the middle class and the poor, and the neglect of capital allocation to healthcare, education, infrastructure. Pope Francis calls for a culture that feels others pain, that "gives access to all to the fruits of creation, to the basic needs of life: to land, lodging, and labor."

Great American Revival Industry Task Force
04/15/2020
The Trump Business task force has two tasks. How to respond to the economic damage from coronavirus and how to reopen the economy. The president is fine with reopening parts of the economy at a time, with the federal government working together with state governors - the least risk ones going first, the most risk ones coming last done on the advice of health experts. Testing and virus tracking are key issues in reopening the economy with systems that are both efficient and reliable needed for public to have confidence.

New York Times 03/20/19
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.
