A different economic system would shape and sustain altogether different government policies. [b]A different economic system from the ground up means reorganizing enterprises to put democratic majorities (of employees and of residents of communities that interact with the enterprise) in charge of all the basic decisions: what, how and where to produce and what to do with the profits.... [/b] ....With the people in charge of enterprises - instead of tiny groups of capitalists - the economic resources they send to the government (e.g., taxes) will require it finally to serve [b]the people[/b] in return. Just as capitalist enterprises always made sure to shape government to work primarily for them, [b]so a social transition to workers' self-directed cooperative enterprises [/b]would make sure that government, for the first time, genuinely works for the majority. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Here is the BIO of this clown: RICHARD D WOLFF Richard D.

A Nevada legislative panel has decided it's high time to repeal a state law that allows job discrimination against communists.
The 12-member Legislative Commission unanimously decided this week to introduce a bill at the 2013 session that would repeal a law that was passed in 1951 during the anti-communist fervor of the Cold War.
The law allows employers to reject job applications from communists and their sympathizers, and to fire any communists in their workforce.
