america 2.0.21 our 250th anniversary

in celebration of 250 years of progress

the united states of america

decided that rather than building

"a roman war victory monument"

we instead doubled down on our

very prosperous future*

:

one passed a law to educate our people

from age 3 - 16 all children (and visitors)

are guaranteed a basic education

tailored to each student's specific needs

but with goals set by the nation

tweaked at the state level to add another

higher level of scholarship

.

two institute a 14 week paid family or medical

leave insurance program to benefit

maternal health

economic security

gender equality

.

three pass a law 

controlling the language 

of elected officials 

no blaming the other side

(no mention of the radical left or right)

after the election: you serve everyone

so, when we speak it is

with a spirit of cooperation

to find our middle ground

.

happy birthday america

.

successful countries or individual states

have already done. except for 'three' which

is just plain common sense: the current

culture is toxic.
