<BR>
Call outs are easy; building an economic reality alternative to the dominant system is challenging! Yet what is challenging appeals me more than what is easy...<BR>

Wow<BR>
<BR>
I am with that Mayday call out 100%. <BR>
<BR>
"a continuous strike, a permanent<BR>
withdrawal from the current system, a signal for all those who feel<BR>
their work to be meaningless and unsatisfying, to switch to<BR>
alternative means which are beneficial to the whole community, to<BR>
support themselves and their families"<BR>
<BR>
To me, this is the profound escalation that the movement needs. Brilliant.<BR>
<BR>
Between now and May, there is enough time to make this happen as long as it becomes the focus globally very soon. Definitely something for Sheffield?<BR>

MAYDAY! MAYDAY!<BR>
It is obvious we are headed for disaster unless we change course<BR>
drastically, and we don't have a lot of time. A project is being<BR>
discussed internationally in the Occupy movement - Global Strike May<BR>
2012. What we are proposing is a continuous strike, a permanent<BR>
withdrawal from the current system, a signal for all those who feel<BR>
their work to be meaningless and unsatisfying, to switch to<BR>
alternative means which are beneficial to the whole community, to<BR>
support themselves and their families. In order to make this feasible<BR>
this alternative system needs to be up and running by May 2012.<BR>
Outrageous! Impossible! I agree with you. Nevertheless it has to<BR>
happen if we are serious about moving from this morally bankrupt and<BR>
physically damaging path we are on, to a sustainable system that puts<BR>
people before profit. Join us on Take the Squares Network<BR>
