It's what you do that really means something. Shopping should NOT be our end goal.

Unfortunately in America, capitalism wants you to believe just the opposite.

Unions are a good start but we need to democratize our entire economy if we want real freedom for everyone. If we want everyone to have a meaningful life, we need to bring the principals of democracy to our economic life.
