4. IT WAS BORN IN SHOCK
The secret history of the free market

it wasn't born in freedom and democracy, it was born in shock

ONLY A CRISIS

ACTUAL OR PRECIEVED

PRODUCES A REAL CHANGE


Milton Friedman





SHOCK WEARS OFF

IT IS BY DEFINITION A TEMPORARY STATE

THE BEST WAY TO STAY ORIENTATED

TO RESIST SHOCK IS

TO KNOW WHAT IS HAPPENING TO YOU AND

WHY

8. Sign a petition to FEMA and help disaster survivors
The FEMA administrator recently announced that FEMA would no longer provide ice and generators after a hurricane to disaster survivors. In response, the Disaster Accountability Project is asking for people to sign this petition. Please forward to anyone you know, particularly anyone who lives on the Gulf Coast.

9. Naomi Klein is great.
If you like that kind of stuff I'd also highly recommend David Harvey and Mike Davis.
