Hi to you to! :-) What do I think? I think that I already help the ones in my personal life where possible. But that's not the main issue here; I hope we all do that already. And it's also not an issue of starting a new Kibboets or island-community; like you say, these are here already. Speaking of which, suggesting to join or start such a community has the same taste as the racist who says to the immigrant who complains about his low wages "well, if you don't like it here..." You know what follows after that. I'm not saying you use it maliciously though, but I hope you catch my drift. No, it's none of that, and I do seek a paradigm shift, however improbable, because I care about our future. You could rightly say that this has never solved anything, but the same goes for the communities you referred to. You might say I have a blind, naive belief that if enough people like me keep stressing how fake and destructive the socioeconomic order based on capitalism is, we'll someday maybe reach critical mass. And you're right, it doesn't matter really what we call the form of government (or, hopefully some day, lack thereof), because else we'd all migrate to the Democratic People's Republic of North Korea ;-)

Anyhow, thanks so much for dropping in! :-)
