Restoring Earthhealth

"America's health care system is neither healthy, caring, nor a system." Walter Cronkite An organic system, an interdependent co-governing web of relationships between communicating subsystems, To be resilient, to remain robust, must be win/win cooperative rooted and not so much capitalist, headstrong win/lose dominant intended. Win/lose plutocratic, kleptocracy, and capitalist monocultural intent, straight white patriarchal divine design, extractive environmental plunder, all logically conclude with degenerative WholeSystem lose/lose entropy; the opposite of win/win healthy caring regenerativity. So too, a complex, deeply interconnected justice system, to grow multiculturally robust multigenerational justice and WholeEarth systemic peace, must become win/win designed to restoratively mediate healthy perpetrator/victim relationships And not leading with judicial retribution, with win/lose punishing past injustice committed to revengeful disinvestments, excommunications, extractions from extended wounded communities to be held in a physical/financial kennel for hopelessly rabid dogs, rats, feral cats, vampire bats. So too, a complex, deeply interconnected health care system, to be healthy and co-empathically caring, and remain a thriving resilient system accessible to future EarthTribe regenerations, Must be cooperatively owned and self/other co-responsibly governed with win/win multicultural multigenerational gift economy merciful intent Not so much win/lose surgically competitive medical technologies available only to the highest bidder in a competitive international market for monetized commodified win/lose disorganized insurance corporate profit players. So too, a complex, deeply interconnected communication system, to engage empowering, mutually enlightening, communion of leftbrain thoughts with rightbrain feelings, win/win co-passionately co-invested rather than win/lose aggressive bipolar competitions, With debates replacing civil discourse and civic-minded/felt multicultural discernment re-engaging multigenerational stuckness in past competitive anthro-supremacist ideations disassociated from ecosystemic WholeEarth origins feeding evermore win/lose egocentric anxiety about survival of the fittest overpowering communicators When we could choose to communicate thrival of the healthiest caring fit-iningest just and peaceful win/win resilient systems With polycultural outcomes without monocultural intent, With polytheistic multicultural ecofeminist faith without monotheistic straight white patriarchal fear, With ecopolitical win/win cooperative ownership without monopolistic win/lose competitive corporate rulership, With ecosystemic win/win health caring communication systems without egocentric win/lose wealth competing apartheid cut-off stems Degenerating WholeEarth climates disempowering cultures replete with characters unenlightened by eco-political absence Of co-empathic conversational experience, cooperative conversions, GoldenRule health systemic Whole GreenEarth consensus.
