Talking points or just fun, either is a positive

I like rhymes because for me they're easier to remember

1)The people come first
solve hunger and thirst
2)What's the price of labor
to help a needy neighbor
3)Without a seed
there is a need
4)Every person you can reach
you can teach
5)Education is for all
tear down the money wall
6)The people will find their voice
when evil removes choice
7)Uniting the trinity
allows infinity
8)Hear the people's cries
why must we pay to be wise
9)It is smart
to think with your heart
10)Our path
is more than science and math
11)Don't overlook
your experience in the book
12)When money is power
it's our last hour
13)When unity reigns
everyone gains
14)If everything is no
where do we go?
15)If you feel small
think tall
16)If you are weak
SEEK
17)Is it a crime
to go beyond time
18)TRUTH
a fountain of youth
19)If its right
unite
20)Hug your kid
no matter what they did
21)Don't let sin
WIN
22)While corporations easily sleep
many painfully weep
23)All TRULY living
are giving
24)BLESS
those who have less
25)Don't say goodbye
turn around and say HI
26)If you sell your soul for a dollar
expect a leash or a collar
27)If schools can't compete
We become the poor and the elite
28)People's feelings
are above corporate dealings
29)Why are we reliant
on any Wall Street giant?
30)Wall Street economics
read the comics
31)Redistribute
man's tribute
32)A corporation is a thing
not a human being

Rhymes have a way on catching on with the people

This one eg:

If schools can't compete
We become the poor and the elite


And this one reminds me of something Elizabeth Warren said about Corporations not being people:

It is smart
to think with your heart


Also we watched the old movie, Metropolis last night. It was made in 1927. But it is still so relevant, actually it was pretty prescient and could have been made today regarding Corporate control over people.

One of the main characters was a woman who promised the workers a 'mediator' would come to help them bridge the huge gap between them and the powerful man who ran everything.

Her motto was something like this: 'The heart is the mediator between the head and the hands'. Head was the powerful and hands the workers. The mediator turned out to be the son of the powerful man who controlled everything.

Very good ideas, I like them a lot.

There's an old spiritual saying;

When you can think with your heart and feel with your mind, you're on your way home.

That's what your saying reminded me of!
