Why is life so difficult? Why do we have to struggle so much and yet often gain so little? Why are millions starving? Why is there so much lack and why is abundance so difficult to come by?
Even though most would agree that abundance and love are what we value, the systems around our material world are not set up that way.
Instead our systems are set up to value scarcity. We protect it and manufacture it. And we use fear to make sure that we can keep whatever scarce goods we can gain.
Is it possible to build a system that values abundance instead of scarcity? What would that mean?
Then, that which we value would not be something that could bring me an advantage over someone else, instead we would value that which elevates us all the most.
This requires a profound change in all of our interactions, including communication, and could lead to a system where we would live more aligned with who we feel we are and with what we feel we value (love, freedom, creativity, abundance).

CrimeLess: Hillbilly Heist
It’s 1996 in rural North Carolina, and an oddball crew makes history when they pull off America’s third largest cash heist. But it’s all downhill from there. Join host Johnny Knoxville as he unspools a wild and woolly tale about a group of regular ‘ol folks who risked it all for a chance at a better life. CrimeLess: Hillbilly Heist answers the question: what would you do with 17.3 million dollars? The answer includes diamond rings, mansions, velvet Elvis paintings, plus a run for the border, murder-for-hire-plots, and FBI busts.
