After several follow-ups, there was still nothing but silence from the three contenders. Biden, Stein, and Trump apparently seem concerned only about their own status and aspirations, and also including possibly avoiding the fate of JFK and not a twit about the fate of humanity.

Voters to the Rescue

Readers, as voters, collectively you have it in your power, believe it or not, to help save humanity! This revelation, paradoxically, came to me belatedly. You have the power because of the power elites' Achilles' heel.

At election time you can tell candidates in your district and nationwide that you will not vote for them if they:

>Allow subsidies to industry.

>Yield to lobbyists.

>Allow privatization of public resources.

>Allow foreign currency speculation.

>Support U.S. membership in International Monetary Fund, the World Bank, and the World Trade Organization.

>Support the Federal Reserve Board.

>Promote the "free market".

>Participate in fear mongering over national debt.

>Support bad capitalism instead of good capitalism.

> Allow economic disparities and poverty.

>Allow unsustainable development.
