A society organised around the needs and aspirations of everyone, not the privileges of a few rich folks. Where people together manage their own workplaces, communities, and the land. Is it possible? How would you do it?

" ...we’re unimaginably more likely to become homeless than to become one of the winners of the game of capitalism." Piece rebuts the idea that more education and seeming job security disqualifies you as a worker. Take away? Every one works for a pay check can use a union!
