The Real Problem

Maybe the growing gaps between voters and Congress, workers and wall street executives, between the top 1% and the bottom 90%, are really more of a basic communication problem. We talk, they don't listen.  They just keep acting in their self-interest without regard to the consequences for the rest of us, our meager plights are of little interest. ... 
Gee, that sure is a beautiful yacht!  

And that's how it happens.


Is it possible to focus on real problems & talk about their solutions with ALL our interests in mind?  Is it possible for any of us to listen to each other, to the concerns of another human, without fear or self interest?  Is it possible for those that could change lives to do so?



This is my first of many blogs here on Blog O' Possibilities.  So Welcome!  
Hope you stick around. :),
