Governments can to be considered "us" not "them". This is a much more
powerful place to change from. The wish for economic expansion is the
wishes of all of us multiplied. Who of us is content? I think the war
against the patriarchy is really being fought inside of us, inside our
heads, as we take responsibility for our own lives, grow up, and stop
looking to big daddy to help us or blaming him when things go wrong.
