disturbed by dream [View all]
I dreamed that the passage of TPP allowed companies to acquire social security benefits from individuals. Clairol launched a campaign called "Your Beautiful Retirement" in which it invited women to trade their future social security benefits for $5,000 cash and $5,000 in Clairol stock. Participants also received a free makeover. I was sent to an information session on this program sponsored by Clairol so I could learn more about the program and report back to a concerned citizens group.
After the creepy session, targeting low-income women who were desperate for instant cash, I returned to the group and this is what I said:
"If we think that wealth and income disparity is a crisis now, just wait. We will all be dead in 6 years. TPP is going to cause wealth to be sucked to the top with such speed, we will all be left utterly dry. And while we are all starving to death down here, we will not trust one another, we will not help one another, and we will not be kind. It will be horror."
