INNOVATION-NOT… POLITICAL DANGERS AHEAD

With all the talk about reigning in oligarchs and theircorporations, it’s important to point out that appropriate regulation requires responsible governance.

Voters need to demand responsibility from their electedleaders but unfortunately most Americans seem to be getting distracted. The people of the United States of America are not uniting and focusing on the same goals.

It’s time to return to consensus issues like funding medicalresearch. If the Trump administration is going to cut funding to educational institutions that do medical research and force pharmaceutical companies to slash prices how will we incentivize research and innovation?

The profit model of private companies has its downside butthe incentive of politicians to give funding to their campaign donors may not be much better.

Complex problems like this require innovative solutions andfor that to happen we need more voices in government.

These problems are not left/right issues so why should we asvoters be beholden to one or even two political parties? It is in our best interest to think independently and to support politicians who do the same.
