Songs for change



Even if that songs is from 1991 it seems a lot more like a 1980's song. That whatever you can say about the 80's it was atleast not as cynical as the 90's.

USA for Africa - We are the World

 
I am all for positive change. What I can't stand are whiners who think they are owed something for nothing and the checks for free. Also a song, I think.
If you want change that actually matters, change that benefited human kind instead of class envy, here are some songs for you.

This thread has showed that there are a lot of different ideas what change means, I find that interesting. While I don’t understand who the whiners you refer to are? For example, the motto of the Swedish Social Democrats and the Swedish unions have always been “demand your right, do you part”.

That for example that Swedish workers have had real wage increases during the last couple of decades while at the same time Sweden is the best country for business according to Forbes. While in USA, where unions have become a lot weaker, have seen wages stagnated or even declining during the last couple of decades.

A welfare states like Sweden have leads both to security for the low income and middle income families while at the same contribute to a strong economy. That through free universities and economical assistance to all students the best and the brightest can attend universities, instead of the kids whose parents have the biggest wallets. While universal health care leads to that people can be healthy and thereby work and contribute to society.
