““People who are shorter-lived tend to make less, which means that if you raise the retirement age, low-income populations would be subsidizing the lives of higher-income people,” Maya Rockeymoore, president and chief executive of Global Policy Solutions, told the Post. “Whenever I hear a policymaker say people are living longer as a justification for raising the retirement age, I immediately think they don’t understand the research or, worse, they are willfully ignoring what the data say.””

The Problem
Contrary to research showing that Americans from lower economic levels have a shorter life span than those with money, the American congress is proposing budget cuts to medicare and social security. A congress of men who are not effected by such cuts, a congress of men whose incomes far exceed those with less money. The less thans' who end up sending their sons and daughters off to fight in wars that cost at least half, if not more, of the total American budget. War being another profitable enterprise.
Cutting this social aid is another act in self interest, for a few, an indirect way to pay for the wealthy. Just as the children of the lower ranks of income are sent to grab the resources of a freely giving earth, to be owned by a few.
We really need to wake up and realize this present system simply is not working, does not work and must be realigned by people, as people are who have accepted and allowed this. There is no "special force" or hand or "higher being" here, it is us. It is the state of believing in a "higher being/higher beingness" that has created the great divide from life into a state of abusive chaos presently manifested on earth.
The Solution
The wealthy are so busy ensuring their wealth and power, that they really have no common sense of life. They are enslaved to an idea of more than being money and power that they don’t realize that there is no real life on earth until all life is allowed to be life. There is not real creation until all life is life absolutely. Economic slavery does not allow life, it is depression of life. What we allow to one, effects all life, as this is depressing a part of the substance of life that is the very fabric of life here on earth. Manipulating laws and policies in the interests of a few, without equal consideration of all life, renders parts of the fabric of life here on earth “thread bare”. What happens to a piece of fabric when parts of it are “thread bare”? It collapses. Is this not what is happening in America? All that is here must be taken care of as life, for earth to continue, for life to continue. This means giving what is needed to support this physical world, clean water, proper health care, education, and shelter. Such would remove the extreme of seeking power over many, and the existence of leaders pushing policies that serve their own self interested survival and position as this action is an illusive state of believed "higher beingness" in the face of reality. All humans defecate and sleep and enjoy physical comfort, and conversely, would not enjoy being cold, thirsty or hungry, abused and neglected. The wealthy in Congress have imagined a fear so great, they are devoid of any common sense and they justify it with believing they are a "higher beingness"
The Rewards
No more obsession with protecting your wealth. No more spending your time here on earth focused on ensuring that your limited life style of more than and less than is maintained, as life will be realized as the value.
The reward is becoming aware of the nature and expression of self as life, here. It is the development of self as life on a world where the water is clean, where the human physical body is healthy, as these things are respected and taken care of for the value that they are one and equal to, in support of, which is life, here.
