Re: What we stand for: Quasi-Rawlsian ethics (none / 0)
that's a bit oblique for me...

money serves to cushion pain, but very little to make it go away completely.

people, unempowered, have their decisions made for them by sympathetic resonance to others' consensus, and the media is up to its toupee in this.

people can take back the power to successfully redirect their lives to go more where they need, but only first if they take more authorship of their own thoughts. that's the front line...

right now so many are thinking thoughts decided for them by interests to whom they signify little, and the thoughts, force majeure, sink to that level, and they try to sort of think they are in control, but then there's the ghastly ache for authenticity, to fill that part of the void that the status toys and second hand opinions don't get to reach.

cue jokers of all hues...

'The history of public debt is full of irony. It rarely follows our ideas of order and justice.' Thomas Piketty
