Fuhgeddabout the New Deal. Politics and governance are so corrupt (see Predator Nation by writer and filmmaker Charles Ferguson [‘Inside Job’] http://amzn.to/ykXoXg) and beyond change short of nuclear winter, that the idea of a New Deal will make a substantial difference in the lives of ordinary people is nothing but a Grim (cq) fairy tale.
Instead, try a New Meal. I’ve written about food here a lot, but recently (May 26) I came upon something new to me: phytonutrients, natural chemicals found in a variety of plant foods. It turns out, according to a Sunday NY Times article, http://nyti.ms/13SKDLT) that they have been shown to help in the fight against the Boomer scourges: cancer, cardio-vascular disease and dementia.
Join me in building a New Meal, one that includes such foods as arugula, dandelion leaves, yellow corn, violet potatoes, wild blueberries . . .
Spurn mild and go for the wild. That seems to be the secret. Which, when you think of it, goes along with a new New Deal. As in, going off the grid. Getting away from politics and governance, where corruption is but a dark-hued storyline on stress in a land where the ultimate enemy is time, which if you allow yourself to believe in the New Meal can be caught off-guard and befriended.
