“From each according to his ability to each according to his need – that’s communism. That’s also a potluck.

Sean’s Monologue: The Case Against Capitalism

Today Coup Save America talks with Beth Green, a fascinating and intelligent woman who wears the many hats of author, intuitively-guided counselor, teacher, spiritual activist, composer, workshop leader, original thinker, and a catalyst for change.

According to Beth, “My life is full of horrors and miracles – there is no in-between.” She introduces herself by sharing her early experiences as a tiny activist, who, despite the setback of a serious illness continued to make political waves throughout her youth. Listen to learn about Beth’s letter to the New York Times that got her expelled from an Ivy League college.

Sean and Beth discuss the differences in activism between now and the 1960’s and the stigma associated with the label “socialism.” Beth attests that we are brainwashed from an early age and trained to compete for everything. She explains The Ego – an awareness of the individual existence – and how we must shift our consciousness before we can effectively mobilize for change. We need an inner revolution based on oneness, accountability, and mutual support. Beth sums it all up in one sentence when she says: “The purpose of the economy and society is to meet the needs of the people and the Earth.”

Beth talks about “The New Declaration of Independence” that can be found on Change.org and reminds us that it is American to abolish our government. She and Sean talk about how “It’s a lonely soul that’s caught up in competition” and “You cannot clean the air over one home in Los Angeles.” They give a shout out to mutual aid organizations.

Beth offers her insight on why people are depressed and explains more about how the ego has an infantile consciousness that needs to be taught better. She speculates with Sean about the positive roles that our egos might play, then she shares a simple question we can ask ourselves to help us make good life decisions. Beth also describes how to truly make an amend to someone you’ve wronged.

Beth goes on to explain about the spiritual awakening that completely changed her understanding of a higher power and her approach to activism. Listen to the story of her “inner voice” that even Beth admits that most people will not believe. In the end, she tells us, “Beliefs are just beliefs. They aren’t reality.” A person’s belief system changes as they grow and evolve as a person, and “we co-create reality in a subtle dance of intention and allowance.” How do we build a new consciousness? By talking to everybody and questioning everything, of course!

To conclude the show, Beth reminds us that “If you are not well, you don’t think straight – If you’re stressed, then you’re frantic.” She reiterates the many FREE resources that she offers the world for hope, healing, and a path to a better humanity.
