Thanks Mark

I would like to make money on Medium, but, unfortunately my main topic--replacing western democracy with a better democracy--is not popular. I've been here for 3.5 years. There's about 10 other internet forums with similar results.

Fortunately, this new democracy would only require 1% of the population to get things rolling to where it would be unstoppable.

I fully understand the sick kid thing. I have a son who gets colds rather easily. He's been healthy for six weeks. It's been great.
