Some have speculated that Marx’s diagnosis of capitalism is mostly accurate, and realistically assesses the legitimate downside of capitalism, but that his solution is utopian, impossibly idealistic, and completely unworkable as he envisioned it. What is Creator’s assessment of this outlook on Marx and his contribution to society?

A student speculates that there are in fact two kinds of capitalism in conflict with each other: Entrepreneurial Capitalism versus Monopoly Capitalism. Society itself values entrepreneurial capitalism because it champions competition and encourages innovation. Society, on the other hand, suffers under monopolies as they tend to be anti-competitive and highly prone to engage in anti-competitive practices. Prices tend to go up, quality tends to go down, and workers are exploited as there is no competition for their labor. What is Creator’s perspective on these two proposed categories of capitalism?

The tendency for wealth and the ownership of resources to concentrate in fewer and fewer hands under laissez-faire capitalism presents perhaps the same concern that communism does—slavery of the worker and lower classes of society by a tiny elite class of individuals. Instead of the government, the company is the fully controlling entity. The excesses of company housing and the infamous company store are legion, and one of the realities that contributed to the popularity of Marxism. What is Creator’s perspective on the dangers of concentrated wealth?

Some have asserted that a fascist government, is one that has been co-opted by corporate elites, such that whole governments become de facto extensions of corporate empires, and serve the interest of the corporations over those of the people. Many fear that this is the precise fate that awaits the United States (and perhaps the world). What is Creator’s perspective on this?

Since extreme concentration of wealth and political power seems to be a common theme with the rise of monopolies and corporate fascism, as well as socialism and communism as extreme responses that only seem to end up with precisely the same reality of the few exercising control of the many, what is Creator’s advice on the best way to cope and maybe regulate this propensity? Understanding that healing and mass enlightenment are the ultimate answers, what would Creator suggest as a more interim divinely aligned strategy?

A company, by definition, has a number of contributors, and while arguably the creator and innovator of a company deserves the lion’s share of the rewards, a question some have pondered is whether there should be some kind of limit or sunset on how long this should be allowed to go on? So long as descendants of the founders can manage the corporate empire, the empire could exist indefinitely, along with the stark and extreme apportionment of the profits to the owners and owners’ descendants. What is Creator’s perspective on this observation?

Can Creator share how prayer work and the Lightworker Healing Protocol are the true solutions to creating future collective prosperity, rather than anything involving direct societal planning, organization, and especially coercion of desired behaviors?

Alexis de Tocqueville was a French aristocrat, diplomat, political scientist, and historian, known for his work Democracy in America written after his travels in the United States in the early 1800s. Wikipedia says of Tocqueville: “Tocqueville was a classical liberal who advocated parliamentary government and was skeptical of the extremes of democracy.” With the current unrest and deep polarization in the United States, American democracy is facing its severest test since the Civil War. Can Creator share the divine perspective on Tocqueville, his work, and the extent to which it embodies divine truth and is a product of divine inspiration?

Tocqueville said: “Democracy extends the sphere of individual freedom, socialism restricts it. Democracy attaches all possible value to each man; socialism makes each man a mere agent, a mere number. Democracy and socialism have nothing in common but one word: equality. But notice the difference: while democracy seeks equality in liberty, socialism seeks equality in restraint and servitude.” What is the divine perspective of this statement?

Tocqueville said: “What good does it do me, after all, if an ever-watchful authority keeps an eye out to ensure that my pleasures will be tranquil and races ahead of me to ward off all danger, sparing me the need even to think about such things, if that authority, even as it removes the smallest thorns from my path, is also absolute master of my liberty and my life; if it monopolizes vitality and existence to such a degree that when it languishes, everything around it must also languish; when it sleeps, everything must also sleep; and when it dies, everything must also perish?” This sounds a bit like life in the rest of the universe outside of the Milky Way Galaxy. Was Tocqueville discerning the motive for the divine free will experiment?

Tocqueville said: “I cannot help fearing that men may reach a point where they look on every new theory as a danger, every innovation as a toilsome trouble, every social advance as a first step toward revolution, and that they may absolutely refuse to move at all.” Tocqueville seems to be seeing the dangers of complacency almost 200 years ago. What is the divine perspective on this statement?

Tocqueville said: “It’s not an endlessly expanding list of rights—the right to education, the right to health care, the right to food and housing. That’s not freedom, that’s dependency. Those aren’t rights, those are the rations of slavery—hay and a barn for human cattle.” This comment on the expanding list of rights sounds like a lot of today’s political talking points. Can Creator comment?

Tocqueville said: “Men will not accept truth at the hands of their enemies, and truth is seldom offered to them by their friends.” This statement seems to be both an observation on reality, as well as advice on spreading truth. What is Creator’s perspective on this statement?
