Mission
Most governments have benevolent intentions to create a high quality life and equitable opportunities for their citizens to thrive in an economy that adheres to human rights. However, what precludes this outcome despite worthy programs and intentions is the wealth gap. The wealth gap ensures that all policies and programs do not treat all citizens equally. The wealth gap divides populations and is part of the cause of political gridlock as it becomes impossible to advocate for one group without taking away from another. My mission on this committee is to address the mechanical causes of the wealth gap to ameliorate its pernicious effects, which will remove barriers for many programs intended to improve society as a whole and not for a few at the expense of others. In order to truly achieve a Culture of Peace, the wealth gap must be addressed with the aim of eliminating poverty.
