“Poverty in itself does not make men into a rabble; a rabble is created only when there is joined to poverty a disposition of mind, an inner indignation against the rich, against society, against the government.”
Hello! I love meeting new people, discussing different viewpoints and learning new things. Coffee, philosophy and travel invigorates me. Whether it's history, economics, politics, English lit, art, music, biology, whatever -- I'm an open book!

- What I would Change About the World:
- I say we separate wealth from power and give poor, working and middle class people larger votes. I think Discussion is at the heart of social change and humankind's evolution as a whole... and if we just slow down, recognize each individual's worth and take a moment to engage in intelligent Socratic discussion, we'll see some real progress. Balancing the playing field is key... and right now there are so many voiceless members of society who have the answers to social progress. It's time to listen!
