Less than 24 hours after the announcement of a 7.3 magnitude earthquake in Haiti, the global fundraising machine has begun turning it's wheels.&#160; Those companies and NGO's in the business of disaster are licking their chops to make Haiti the next massive disaster-relief Ponzi scheme for the rich.&#160;Haiti's democratic revolution, inspired the by ideals of [...]]]></description>

		<title>The Radical Permaculturalist</title>
		<description><![CDATA[
  Permaculture is a design science. It can be studied, and thus internalized. When done so successfully, our thinking is transformed. The world is a garden, with potentially infinite yields. This is the basis for radical changes in human behavior. 

  &#160;Radicalism is distasteful to the thoughtful amongst us?  It is because [...]]]></description>

		<title>Permaculture the Schools</title>
		<description><![CDATA[
  The clock is still ticking, and collapse continues unabated.  Most are oblivious to the true nature of the progression, what it means, why it's happening, and most importantly, what we should do about it. 

  &#160;But the answer is simple, and it's right in front of us.  It's so simple, [...]]]></description>

		<title>Non-Ordinary States and Social Revolution</title>
		<description><![CDATA[
Anger is an ineffective tool for social transformation.  It is useful, but in a limited sense.  Anger can rile a population up, and fear can open one’s eyes to a fragile reality.  As they increase, anger and fear become counter-productive, destructive.  And today American society is governed by anger and fear. [...]]]></description>

		<title>A Silent Revolution</title>
		<description><![CDATA[
 

&#160;The case has already been made for revolution; our systems of policy, public administration, self-defense, agriculture...all corrupted and bankrupt.&#160; Is an apolitical, non-violent revolution possible?&#160; We do not know if the culprit is a system based on false premises or if the culprit is human nature itself.&#160; The former leaves space for optimism, the [...]]]></description>

		<title>OSAT: Mass produced or distributed?</title>
		<description><![CDATA[
The argument of mass production versus distributed production at this stage of the game, in my opinion, is a false dichotomy.&#160; Personally, and ideologically, I lean towards distributed production, but I do not think that this has to be at the expense of mass production models of manufacturing.&#160; Mass production will always have a place [...]]]></description>
