(#6131) Showing up and showing out

      The cynics are correct about one thing. When we stop caring is when all things get ugly. There is no magic bullet so to speak to solve our problems with each other but there are a series of solutions that when applied make things better. Really, that is all any of us want is for things to be better. Unlike republicans right now who are taking away health care and food while replacing it with nothing. That isn't making things better, that is making things worse. We don't need worse since that is not how our representatives should be looking out for us.
     It shouldn't matter which political party one is loyal to what is more important is what we do for each other. Complicating things is that we are not all of the same hopes and dreams. That is why trying to force us into hardships will never make things better. We all need our nuances in ways that have an optimism to them and never is making things harder a success. When better approaches are offered to change what we have now is when the time for change comes because better doesn't harm. Any of us could choose cruelty over helpfulness but only those who are not out to improve our lives choose cruelty.
     Which is why we are done with the politicians that rant and rave about what is currently helping but offer no better replacement. You don't have to be aligned with any political party to want our world to be a better place. You just have to show up and show out that you will not be part of harming people with no plan to make them better. If you admired President Dwight Eisenhower just remember he was a progressive republican who was responsible for building the US highway system. Even dick nixon established the EPA. Those are the type of things democrats have been fighting to establish for all Americans. So no matter what your political party just show up and show out for the better of all of us without harming us.
