The Essence of Essential

However it came to pass, businesses participating in our world economy have now been declared to be either “essential” or “non-essential”. Landing in the second group is scary. There have been incidents throughout history that have also been so polarized, many with notoriously grave and immoral consequences. However we got here today, it’s important to recognize that strength is required in order to exercise mercy. Therefore, providing maximum recognition and empowerment for all economic participants best facilitates advancement. It is actually “essential” for a society to represent and accommodate their so-called “non-essentials”, however they decide to slice the pie and serve the pieces. There should be no intrinsic disadvantage for anyone associated with such shifting category lines. In fact, the more lines that are being drawn, the narrower the areas of confinement until every lone citizen would occupy a single box simply by virtue of being a unique individual. There is indeed safety in numbers, but not when everyone wearing the same uniform is pulling in the same direction – to move a mountain, maybe, but that’s a load of dirt. To build a city, everyone must bring their unique tool, whether it be a pen or a hammer. Therefore, VotePlusPlus will be making the case that reform itself is now “essential”, because all individuals – even the most disinterested in a constituency to the most venal in high office – are necessarily and irrevocably essential to improving the process.
