want to save the planet on climate change. The best thing that can be done is to change the system. Whilst we have the profit motive driving all business there will always be unecessary consumption and wastage. Hell as a business owner I via my business am...
Agreed. that is a brilliant idea!
Sounds like a short step away from conscription.
Actually Fisiani Business doesn't create jobs. Customers do. If a business has no customers it won't create a single job.
"but the reality is we need both to be strong." Only whilst we are determined to stay with a system that fails to deliver even the most basic needs to over 50% of the worlds population. Under a better designed and fit for purpose system we would need ...

I believe that there are some within the Greens that are pro automation and freeing people from having to work. This is a far better solution moving forward in a world that is becoming increasingly automated. They are also pro Green tech and pro jobs in ...
"And that outcome is simply for all to have a roof over their head and food in their belly and to spend their days working together to build the best life possible for the greatest number of people, now, and into the future." Fantastic!! but will never ...
I'd typed half a response on this but decided it would be better to give more context around 'pre-distribution'. What do you mean by this and can you give an example for context. thanks in advance. if by predistribution your talking about setting up the ...
And that is exactly the problem and why we simply continuosly bounce from R to L. So long as we continue to have a politics and a system based around redistribution of wealth rather than looking at systems designed to meet the needs and requirements of ...
.....In a system that is geared towards competitiveness at almost every turn. Hell even Mum and Dad are incentivised to spend less time together with their kids as a family.

"national is about to wreck the education system" I'm no fan of National but our education system isn't all that in my view. What I learned in English has been useful but a lot of the other stuff not so much. It may have changed since my time at school but...
Agreed 100% If that were an option, I'd vote. As of right now, nope, better things to do with my time. Having a clear understanding of the system and how its very nature stops us from solving the problems we face as a society is not a very strong driver to...
"Being positive about being up shit creek doesn’t get us out of the shit." Correct but identifying 'pain points' for your target audience and structuring your message in a way that activates those pain points then providing a viable solution and a clear ...
Actually BM is right. If you can't sell your message to voters in this so called system then you might as well pack up and go home. I have been watching the message from Labour and the thing that has become crystal clear is that no one with any influence ...
Let me know when your ready to change the system.

were the rolly eyes before or after watching the link. I'm picking before. ;) If so thats a big part of the problem we face as a society - apathy Given that what she's talking about is supposedly a matter of pblic record in the USA it is quite concerning

"I think that is where The Daily Blog may be heading / being driven / being pulled. It has the characteristics because it is being driven more by media people and journalists than citizen bloggers " Unfortunately for The Daily Blog, they won't be able to ...
In case you missed it, what could potentially be a major game changer took place on Whaleoil yesterday. New Rules were put in place. Rules that at the end of the day will raise the quality of the debate on Whaleoil. Those rules are to be strictly enforced....
Go and do some actual research McFlock. All your doing is showing your gnorance on the topic. Capitalism and Communism both have big governments and use currency, By your logic Capitalism must be Communism.
McFlock You are talking about the system that all humanity lives by. There are always going to be some similarities. It would be naive in the extreme to think otherwise. Capitalism and Communism through their implementations both have big government and ...
My way? My way solves inequality, poverty, war, climate change. Employment law and workers rights are paramount as are human rights. It also solves the Left vs Right political paradigm and the problems that come with it. My way One Anonymous Bloke would be...
Yes sorry Tracey... and woman.
It is not the government (nor the size of it) that is the issue. The issue is with the left vs right political system with its opposing ideologies...
Really!? Thats a very strong and emotive reaction from someone who doesn't consider themselves to be representative of the Left or the Standard. An insincere tone I may appear to have, but that is more from not being emotionally attached to either left or ...
Probably was. Hindsight is always 20/20
