As Americans, we need to come together to save our way of life from the small town, all the way up to the highest office of this land, who would run over their own grandmother for money and power. Look at what has happened in our own town.Historically it has been religion which has tempered Capitalism with ethics and morality. That is not as relevant today for those at the top and certainly a corporation does not have ethics and morality. Monetaryism is the root cause of the problems WT has laid out. The only effective way to remedy this problem would be to adopt a system that is not corruptible... a system that does not glorify greed and materialism... a system without money.
