MISSION - keeganrs@gmail.com

My blog is about my dream for a world where everyone is allowed to exist and improving the quality of life of the world’s citizens is our priority.

For many reasons I reject the current path of the world.

Rich world insanity, excess and lies. Poor world denial of human rights and food. The destruction of the planet. Our homogenisation into one consuming mass of idiots.

We need to look for new ways. New human interactions at every level. New models of participation or at least rescuing old ones. Things like couchsurfing.com and woolf.org are steps in this direction as are the models of health and education being created and implemented in Venezuela.

We need to stand up and say "Enough!" to the current regimes and look to support all those initiatives for a better world and create our own.

Naomi Klein - The shock doctrine - Doctrina del choc


http://www.naomiklein.org/shock-doctrine/short-film

Naomi Klein has broken down one of the most important concepts about modern politics. It helps understand how the powers that be have managed to destroy the version of capitalism where basic working, housing, health and education conditions were guaranteed for almost all citizens. In western europe and Australia this is a slow process gradually increasing the wealth of the rich by controling the wealth of the middle and the ever growing lower class. In other parts of the world more drastic measures have been taken to implement the same policies of "open markets" and "free trade."

Watch the Video, read the book. Entertaining, scary and something that must be understood to create a better world.

Power to the people, the peacefull and the informed!
