“Any system that values profit over human life is a very dangerous one indeed.” Suzy Kassem
What Comes Next? Who welcomes the stranger at their door, how sacred is this finite threshold of interwoven beliefs hanging so thinly, a bulwark against the damp demise, reinforcing our carefully curated fantasy, which, like a paper bag in the rain, causes us to dare consider its collapse into someone's reality, an insecure subjectivity we might cling to as if to a child eagerly seeking a parent in a sea of discordant confusion, something might make sense.

There are so many people that value profit over human life, and that is why nothing significant ever gets done on climate change. I always go with the plastic bags at the grocery store, which do much better in the rain than paper, but I do this because I use then to dispose of the scooped up litter in the cat coxes.

Totally agree Jim, and for me this is the greatest abuse of politics and economics that people don’t count.
