The Permanent Platform

We spend most (52%!) of our annual federal budget on maintaining the ability to wage total war.  This is neither acceptable nor sustainable.  If you as a citizen were asked to spend $1000 a day until you spent just $1 billion, it would take you 2,740 years.  The scale of these allocations are beyond imagining.  Which makes the scale of our ability to instead wage peace truly powerful.  Permanent Platform supports candidates who sow peace, not war.

Today, goods and services can move across borders seeking the most ready consumers, and corporations can move across borders seeking the lowest labor costs, but you and I cannot move freely across borders seeking the best quality of life.  Those committed to the 3rd degree of the Platform author legislation that ensures continental freedom of movement in synergistic partnership with nations across South and North America. 

We work to deliver a Third Industrial Revolution - a green one where internet technology and renewable energy sources converge, and millions of people would produce energy locally – at homes, offices, and factories. This decentralized production would be shared seamlessly within an "energy internet," fostering a societal shift away from hierarchical power structures towards more collaborative ones, fundamentally changing how we do business, govern, educate, and interact in our communities.

Biosphere consciousness envisions a world where humanity recognizes itself as an interconnected part of the Earth's living systems. It is a shift away from individualistic and nationalistic worldviews toward the reality that we belong to a global biosphere. This consciousness fosters respect for all forms of life, and  is vital for addressing global challenges like climate change and ensuring a sustainable future for all species.
