AmericaSpeaks TheVoiceOfJoyce For every Supreme Court Ruling removing our Rights, the restoration depends on an Act of Congress. Congressional Legislators can restore our rights. If there is no Legislative will, vote those Legislators who obstruct our Freedoms , out of office. A Presidential Executive Order will help. Pro Bono litigators will help to protect our Rights. None of these actions are a substitute for Legislative Law to protect our Rights Nationally.

AmericaSpeaks TheVoiceOfJoyce UN sounds the alarm on inequality and Climate Change. Calling out Coal mining as the enemy of our Planet. ( odd the US Supreme Court wants to preserve coal, though it is the most environmentally harmful of all CO2 and methane emitters) Our World is in crisis; War, Covid and Famine. We can’t afford to exceed 1.5 degrees Celsius. If so, billions will die and our water resources, fish & crops will be limited. A lack of resources and the air we breathe, will kill us.

AmericaSpeaks TheVoiceOfJoyce The EU & UK are suffering inflation. Prices rising and labor feeling the lack of spending power. They’re borrowing to stay afloat. Causes: Corporate Greed, supply chains, War in Ukraine, Climate Change ! Spending is down. We need to increase R&D and keep people employed at a decent wage. CEO pay ratios to their employees compensation is not justified.

AmericaSpeaks TheVoiceOfJoyce. The Carbon footprint from industrial farming is 40% of all Carbon Emissions. The US is responsible for11% of Carbon Emissions. These Emissions can be reduced, when people ask for food diversity and a healthier diet. By planting different crops and reducing our reliance on beef Carbon Emissions will decrease. Next, why subsidize corn, wheat and soybeans ($20/billion a year), by rewarding monopolies & encouraging them not to invest in biodiversity? Corn is mandated for ethanol production. It can be replaced by canola plants grown in the desert . These plants do not compete with any other product and use less water, they’re made to be a bio fuel. Meanwhile, we’d free up grass land to cultivate tastier fruits and vegetables. This would be a win win for Americans:Less Carbon emissions and better tasting food products, with more choice and an enriched soil. Wouldn’t you want that farm fresh taste?

AmericaSpeaks TheVoiceOfJoyce I’m not surprised the Red Cross is refusing to pay their workers a fair wage, grant a new Union Contract, they’re a mean spirited profit driven group. The American Workers refuses to be abused and now walks off jobs that fails to pay and staff workers according to the consumers need. They’re won’t be resignations, when employers honor Union Contracts, have adequate staffing and pay and benefits.

AmericaSpeaks TheVoiceOfJoyce End Corporate extortion no subsidies unless American workers get to design and produce chips for the American market. Otherwise, Corporations belong to no Nation and are sovereign powers working for themselves. Like Exxon claiming they’re not a US Corporations & the follow policy beneficial to the US! Why give them subsidies? The American people need better wages and relief from Corporate Greed

AmericaSpeaks TheVoiceOfJoyce Giving Student Loan Debt relief is a no brainer. It’s already a debt and the interest keeps the DOE & TREASURY operating. Meanwhile, the Trump Corporate Tax cuts have already earned $2.3 Trillion for Billionaires, 2/3 the cost of Biden’s Build Back Better Bill. Where’s equality and equal opportunity for the lower and Middle Classes? We the People need relief, too!
