in imagePrinceton University study:
Public opinion has "near-zero"
impact on U.S. law.
Gilens & Page found that the number of
Americans for or against any idea has no
impact on the likelihood that Congress will
make it law.
"The preferences of the average
American appear to have only a
miniscule, near-zero, statistically
non-significant impact upon public
policy."

IT IS THE FAILURE OF THE COLLECTIVE
IMAGINATION THAT DOESN'T HOLD SPACE
FOR SOMEONE UNIQUELY SPECIAL AS
YOURSELF.
INSTEAD OF FIXING YOURSELF, BREAK THE
CONSTRICTIVE MOLD WITH THE FULLNESS
OF YOUR BEING AND WITH YOUR
MULTIDIMENSIONAL RADIANCE, EXPAND
WHAT IS POSSIBLE TO ENSURE THAT MORE
PEOPLE CAN BREATHE AND BE MORE
FREELY THAN THEY EVER BELIEVED
POSSIBLE.

with it - and I've been
on and off medication
for it for years."

in imageFor so long everyone has wanted to hold on to the belief
that the United States is a class-free society - that
anyone who works hard enough can make it to the top.
Few people stop to think that in a class-free society there
would be no top.
