In
the next month, we will hear a lot about the Olympics and the weather. Itâs so cold,
how can there be anything called global warming? The real issues: Jobs, income
inequality, minimum wage and the direction of the economy must be subjects that get fixed in 2014.
Perhaps,
unemployment is how the current generation will learn economics.
Use
this quote from Sam Smith as the basis for your homily on how to achieve the political outcomes you desire in 2014:
From the American revolution to the underground railroad, to the
organizing of labor, to the drive for universal suffrage, to the civil rights,
women’s, peace and environmental movements, every significant political and
social change in this country has been propelled by large numbers of highly
autonomous small groups linked not by a bureaucracy or a master organization
but by the mutuality of their thought, their faith and their determination.
There is no reason it cannot happen again…
