City On A Hill / #teachers #parents #community #USA

How we educate ourselves and each new generation has a direct effect on our valuing of human life and also how we make decisions in our daily life that impact self and community. It becomes imperative to the health of any community to shape hearts and minds to be free to form their own opinions and outlooks, and to give them the necessary tools and wherewithal to resist those who seek to take advantage of them as they come to greater awareness. It is imperative for the health of a people and for the strength of the family, that the eyes of our hearts be about how to be unique and original community innovators. Time is of the essence then to teach in the matters of critical thinking, of political science, and of financial literacy, of emotional intelligence, and of essay writing, of social entrepreneurship and of volunteering.

American geoeconomics pivoting to effect a better trade stance with China is an entirely reasonable monetary rebalancing, given the decades long reality of a market relationship wherein most of the transacted goods initiate with them, being sold to us, with far less of our more costly goods finding their ways on to their land. Their over one billion residents, as a whole, simply do not have the individual monetary spending power that the average American citizen employs, and with labor costs greatly connected to the average cost of living, China can exact a profit of its goods sold to us as it maintains a low labor cost. Due to lack of such labor-protective actualities in China, such as labor unions and a democratic reality allowing Chinese citizens to have power over their government, therein being empowered advocates over their economic livelihoods, the average factory working Chinese laborerā€™s return investment on their time and physical energy expenditure can be held to a p...
