Top 7 Issues on My Mind.

  1. Public education.  The teaching profession and how to bring some level of prestige and selectivitiy into it.  Treating failing students with the same urgency that we would treat a dying patient.  An achievable baseline of standards with a no tolerance policy.  The playing field is already unequal when it comes to mental faculty but kids who either have an innately dull wit, have low expectations or who have tremendous environmental odds to overcome have a double handicap if they have crappy teachers.  Why shouldn’t everyone have a fair shot at being average at the very least?  Capitalism is a bitch.  (A bitch that you know you wouldn’t want to live without but don’t know how to quell.)
  2. CSR.  Corporate Social Responsibility, esp. with regard to working conditions, contribution to the global economy, environmental conservation.
  3. Design.  Stronger, faster, more intelligent, more efficient, überfriendly.
  4. Information and connectivity.  Moving the evolution of truth forward, making data aggregatable, strengthening networks at all scales.
  5. Beauty.  Pure aesthetics.
  6. Artistry.  To express yourself, tell a story, make a statement.
  7. Diet.  Processed food.  Again, capitalism is a bitch.
