Zero

Word Problem:  
What is the political
and economic
and moral difference
between a -1 communist concentration camp
and a +1 capitalist detention camp?

Hint: 
Probably the same Christian taxpayer difference
between 
-0 (emptiness):
 
SUBTRACT empowering hope
for a healthy democracy,
Red and Yellow
Black and White
they are precious
in His sight

and
+0 (fullness): 

ADD disempowering despair
of stealthy stupid kleptocracy,
pitching Red against Yellow
Black against White
liberal SkyBlue anthropocentric dreams
against conservational EarthGreen realities

Economically unsafe 
and politically unhealthy 

MotherEarth
laid to waste,
dark stark global disrepair.

Capitalist detention camp distinctions
without communist concentration camp differences

DeGenerative World Problem UnSolution:
a +1 v -1 Total-itarian risk.

ReGenerative Word Problem ReSolution:
a Win/Win +0 and -0 CoBinary 
Making Earth Great Again
healthy democratic CoIntelligent 
ecological-economic opportunity.
