“We’ll shut down the war machine and help everyone in this country. We’ll make everyone in this country strong – the poor, the elderly, the immigrants, everyone. And then we’ll help others. I’m not saying get rid of the military completely. Just keep enough to defend this lad. That will leave plenty of money to make all of us truly strong.”

We have invited other communities to use our space. 2025 will look very different from today, and I am challenged to have the vision”
