Back to our modern “New Deal.” We think of FDR’s New Deal as being about building infrastructure like roads, bridges, levees. But it can be about anything that does not work and is a problem for society.
By turning its own unworkability into workability, America would be showing the world a new approach to community life. It could recover the moral leadership it has lost under the present regime. Its example could be its way of apologizing to a world whose economies it has more than once undermined and to which it has brought, overtly and covertly, wars of terrible destruction.
This is do-able, Mr. President-elect. Your administration can do it. We can do it with you. We are here to serve you and America. Don’t ignore our outstretched hand.
Let’s make America work again - not for the sake of profit, power, and prestige, but for the sake of compassion, harmony, and unity.
