Note: I added the resolution below to the holiday cards I sent out to friends and gave out to neighbors - as a consciousness raising endeavor.  Got several unexpected good responses from neighbors in my senior building.  If you think it is worthwhile, please forward it to others on the web.

Yours for a better world.

A Real New Year's Resolution: For Human Need not Corporate Greed!

In this "land of plenty" there is no need for hunger, homelessness or lack of adequate healthcare. There is no lack of wealth (the rich keep getting richer - even during the current economic crisis), but trillions of dollars are drained away in the name of wars for oil and profit.

In the New Year let's join hands with all of our sisters and brothers in this country and around the globe, regardless of nationality or creed, and strive for a world where human needs come first. We can begin to build a country and a world where the wealth we create with our labor is not squandered on war, or given away to big banks, Wall Street and transnational corporations in order to insure their superprofits!

So, in 2010 let's resolve to take a stand against the twin evils of corporate greed and of bigotry of all kinds - which is always used by those at the summits of power to keep us divided.

The "No Impact Project."

So My New Year's Resolution is to seek out third party candidates worthy of better exposure to the public and promote them.

I resolve to join the National Movement to Register Third Party on January 13, 2010 by switching my voter registration on that date.  I will no longer be a registered Democrat.  The Green Party supports more of my own principles than any other party.

If enough of us re-register with progressive Third Parties on Jan. 13, perhaps the Democrats as well as the Republicans will get the message that we no longer trust them to represent us.

Perhaps they will start representing us instead of their corporate masters, but I doubt it.

A truly populist and progressive national Third Party must start somewhere and some time, so let's start in 2010.
