[GREG SLAWSON]

Good point jerry. Marx had a quote about how the culture of a society is determined by the culture of it's ruling class--however I also think people have a dual socialization--the greed/selfishness of the rulers (AIG investors!) and the cooperativeness/helping that originates in the working class...

  It is ironic that the absolutely greatest capital asset ever on the planet and of the human 

race is humans, which clearly most capitalism/-ists don't give a fuck about.  
 So true, human nature can be a wonderful thing, giving, loving and helping are very nice drugs, unfortunately we still live inthe Age of Greed and it's all self, self, self. We are swimming against the tide and the current is getting stronger.

Haha…it’s certainly trying times for capitalism.
 
Side note: Does the US left have any figures as repugnant as Bill O’Reilly, Coulter, and Rush Limbaugh? They’re practically intolerable, and why anyone still listens to them in the current climate is beyond me.

For those who, um, dress to the political Left and the people 

who love them, I just saw this in today's news..

 

"It's too bad Marxists don't believe in god. Otherwise they'd be thanking 

him for having sent A.I.G. down to earth to destroy capitalism."

People are always willing to parrot plattitudes they've learned from anti-communist teachers, parents, etc., w/o really thinking about them. But in the US there is a nightly segment on nbc news about how, in the tough economy, there is an outpouring of people helping each other, doing things for free, giving more to the less fortunate, etc., w/o looking for any praise or payback. And don't forget that we've never lived in a time when poeple in power are prevented form being corrupt, so how can we know if everyone in power will automatically be corrupt?

I find it interesting when some people term humanity as some form of parasite. Do these people include themselves in the analogy, or not? If yes, do they use the idea as some form of condonation for not giving a sh*t?
There is a trend, particularly in industrial music, to adopt this idea....hell of a way to perpetuate the inert, or do they feel that they are in touch with the zeitgeist?

mankind has and continues to rule to the detriment of others . Any leader showing compassion is usually assassinated.Power corrupts and usually those at the top are moulded and coersed by the host of sychophants and other manipulators who have thier own agenda .  No doubt i will be scoffed and jeered at when i say that mankind is incapable of looking after himself and the world will only change for the better when jesus comes to right the wrongs ...remember how they laughed at the people attempting to make flight possible ...i rest my case

 and there has to a way to recall leaders when they do try to climb above others...

 
 Like a coup or an asassination? I wish i had your faith, but 99% of the time, those that rise to the top make damn sure they can stay there. You can never stop those that wish to suceed at the expense of others, "feather the nest and fuck the rest" etc. The concept of a council like the Roman senate was supposed to keep things fair and right but ultimately backhanders, coersion and corruption take over, all to satisfy the greedy few, and those Wolves ALWAYS come dressed in Sheeps clothing.
 
Nah, i think i'l just stick to treating people like i want to be treated myself and hope it eventually rubs off on everyone.

That's the key--how to keep people from being top of the pile and ripping others off. The decision-making has to be collectivized and people have to be accountable (the opposite of the US bankers) and there has to a way to recall leaders when they do try to climb above others...

(w/communist distribution of goods and services according to need). 
 
And WHO decides who needs what? There's always someone at the top of the pile. Great in theory, sadly lacking in practice.

Funny, the Progressive Labor Party advocates a future revolutionary society in which we operate without money! (w/communist distribution of goods and services according to need). Maybe Jaz will join!

Presumably Jaz's talk will centre on his upcoming book: 

 


>From Jaz's entry on the wikipedia site (I don't think it's been mentioned here yet, but apols etc).


 

Coleman is writing a book about permaculture, free energy, freedom and freedom-loving individuals. The main thesis is on how to survive without money. The book will be divided into two parts; one part concentrating on the music and other on the ideas behind it.[10] The book is planned to be published in 2009.[11]
