Quite the contrary, my posting is about the solutions he favors: Libertarian Socialism and Anarcho-Syndicalism.<BR/><BR/>Those solutions are indeed as "rational" as can be...as in "works-on-paper" rational.

It's this very thing that enabled America to elect an African American president last November.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
