Water seeks it's own level. The economy, our environment and all socializations each seek their own level and will thrive given the opportunity to balance the force it has.
If outside forces (politics) exert pressures that alter the balance, then nature struggles to maintain the level it seeks.
Right now, politics seem to be exerting pressures on every front that hinder and/or make it impossible for natural levels to maintain themselves in our country. All things are not equal, nor equally powerful.
Congrats Erin! I'm proud of you.
