Response to a Republican’s Campaign

I wish you health and prosperity. Your policies are well suited to uncontrolled capitalism. The financial consequences of environmental issues are of too high a value to you. Our Earthship is being consumed and destroyed by our human occupation. My grandson deserves to get a planet that is supportive and sustainable, whatever the cost is to me. Thanks for trying.

Corporations are legally obligated (Mich. Supreme Court, Dodge Motor v. Henry Ford, 1919) to cut costs like labor and energy without regard to 1,000 years of sustainability, or are they? What do you want?

Corporations’ ability to make a profit demands that they produce products that are not durable so they do not keep customers out of the marketplace, or should they? How long should your car or computer last?

A pregnant woman who will foreseeably experience a social or personal tragedy ought to have access to mitigating treatments, or should they not? Do you or the injured party have the right to choose what to do with them? Has Ford made an F-150 truck before it draws air into its carburetor, or not?

If we cut our U.S. military spending in half, we would still be spending more than Russia and China combined while maintaining our world leadership. We are the world’s technology leader.

When you say, “Healthcare Services,” you could mean for-profit doctors and hospitals. That is a failing model. We need “Healthcare Access” with patient payment out of the stream of providing care. Business leaders are patients, too.

Your website has given me a list of reasons to not vote for your policies. Your thinking is beneficial to you and your friends, not to the national population base. Thanks for trying.
