Response to MYT article on "going forward".

What is "forward"? As in Biden can lead us "forward". The end point, "a more prefect nation" hasn't been defined and the method of getting there hasn't been defined. We are like children climbing a hill. We don't know why, it's harder than walking around, and we don't know what we should do when we get there. To me forward is a base minimum income, if you want more get a job, work hard, do it well, contribute, and make a few dollars more. So better and more secure economics. Protected "life, liberty, and property" that can't be taken away without "due process of law": charges, indictments, proof, jury or scientific measurements, and equally applied to all people, no matter how who they are, what they look like, how much power they do or don't have. Equal chances to get educated, to learn the wonder and glory of the Universe of things and of people. And how to get them and give them and share them and want them for everybody  

To raise children in a secure home with a secure food, clothing, and shelter and the chance to guide them, laugh with them, teach them and learn from them, to laugh and cry, sing and dance, give and get with them and from them.
