This isn't funny at all. In many ways, it's out of our hands. At least it feels that way today. 'It's' so big. There are so many people. The refugees in camps. Global warming and so many people. So much money in the hands of few. These are the drivers of what is to come. I do feel tired. There is no planed way to reunite families. A DNA company is offering tests as a way.
I joined the DSA (Democratic Socialists of America), switching from the Green Party. Grassroots is the only way. And I think change will be local--. And I have the luxury of being in a blue state.
So there are private job agencies that control welfare in AU? Are there private prisons?
I haven't read Baldwin except for Another Country, but I was too young to understand.
