Tiers of Wealth, Justice & Subjective Reality
In this episode of Positively Pedestrian, we discuss, an arc of topics from the Pope as an apologist, for fraud waste and abuse to the Sackler family profiting from much the same, and offering the same sort of tacit, and weak apology. From there we look at history and access to information. Visualizing wealth distribution, alongside a world of unparalleled productivity, speed and scale. We talk about the lives of the independently wealthy, those who own the means of production. Proffering a tiered model of wealth and justice. We conclude by offering up a list of tools that can shift the balance of power and a proposal for a Community College class to disseminate it.
