We have been told a lie … a lie that says progress comes as a result of the efforts of “great” individuals. That lie is used to justify the huge wealth inequity in the world today. The truth is that progress is the result of our ability to cooperate with each other. And it is time that the fruits of that progress be used to help everyone live a dignified life.
