I think the problem is a broken U.S. healthcare system. We may have the smartest, most talented doctors and medical experts in the world, but our system is antiquated and non-responsive. (posted to What's Your Life Expectancy?)

Hi alliwilli, I have another post coming out pointing to what Mark Cuban has to say about this. One of the points he makes, and I totally concur with him, is that he believes only the megawealthy should pay a (posted to William Buffett Proves Billionaires Don't Pay Enough Taxes)

The AWEARNESS Blog provides daily updates under four socially-aware pillars of discussion: Social Rights, Well-Being, Political Landscape and Hard Times. This blog hopes to raise awareness around the issues that fall under these four areas in a dynamic and engaging format. In addition to regularly updated news and commentary under these topics, the blog also includes Q&As, original content from Kenneth Cole himself and contributions from staff members of Kenneth Cole Productions. There's a lot to delve into so we suggest you stop reading this boring intro stuff and get involved.

Hard Times

Poverty. Unemployment. Homelessness. Social insecurity. For issues like these we really need to spare some change. Give us your two cents to help put a hot meal of content on this table for others to consume, and give those less fortunate than ourselves some credit.

Political Landscape

This terrain can be highly treacherous. Watch your step as you navigate the sifting sands of political agendas and government policies. Hopefully we can wipe away the slinging mud and scroll around for the truth that rarely dares to surface.

Social Rights

Equality. Remember that? It's a mythical utopia most of us are still searching for. Let's stand up for the minorities and the moral injustices that many have to face every day. Let's discriminate against discrimination. Does that sound fair to you?

Well-Being

Without our health, we have nothing. There are many things out there trying to harm us: AIDS; Pollution; Global Warming; Bird Flu; Medical bills. Some are natural, some are man-made, and unfortunately for us the list is endless. More posts here might be just the medicine we need.

Join me in raising social
awareness. Together we
can take steps towards
making a difference.
