"For over 20 years, David Glickman, CEO of Primo Connect has been a telecom innovator, serial entrepreneur, visionary of multinational telecom companies, and, through separate honors in 1998 and 2015, the first individual ever to lead two separate companies to the #1 of Inc’s fastest growing company 500 list. David has made it his mission to take on the large telecom industries by creating companies that make connecting to friends and family more accessible and cheaper for the masses.

Most recently, as CEO of Ultra Mobile -- a nationwide carrier founded in 2011 dedicated to delivering innovative, cost-effective mobile services for people living in the US who regularly call internationally -- Glickman produced an increase of more than 100,000% in 2015’s annual revenue."

This is so important. I also believe that this is the central conflict between the disenfranchised and the entitled. Yes, we despise evil, but we do nothing but help create it by turning on those we perceive as bad people the second we're given the go ahead.

"I can do better as a human being with empathy towards someone who is broken; sad and probably doesn't understand why people hate him."

If we ever want to stop hatred, if we ever want to stop violence, if we ever want to fundamentally stop the same alienated people who turn to mass violence as their destructive outlets, we have to do it with empathy.

This article is great, and I post it every time the gun control argument comes up after every mass shooting that comes up:

Empathy is the only thing that will save us. It might not save us all, but we have to try.

I was thinking both. Because they're both running REG A+ campaigns on StartEngine (which means they're both open to non-accredited investors) it's interesting to see what people want to invest in more. Because on the one hand, Elio is marketing as a car for the people, trying to be super affordable and gas efficient, etc. But XTI is very clearly a hugely expensive jet, made for and by business executives, and has 1% written all over it. So what do people want to bet on with their pocket books. A car for them, or a jet for the 1%? A better question, for me, is what would actually be a bigger return on your investment...

This is such an awesome resource!!!! {Edit: I say this as a writer and not as a 3D animator / designer. I apologize for sounding very fan-boy about it, but I do really appreciate this.}
