[QUOTE="rickyb, post: 4514666, member: 56035"] i think the protests are blowback against the system in general, not just racism or police violence. i think democracy and solidarity is the answer to power. and dont have systems which centralize so much power in the first place. i was using your language. whatever you want to call it. you know the federal govt prints money to fund things. it doesnt necessarily need taxes. most people in positions of authority are mediocre or venal. its about making them afraid. thats what the civil rights did. worker struggles. etc one of the things i thought about responsibility is that capitalism keeps us largely like children in the sense that we are told what to do all the time on the job. a few people make all the decisions, and we've abdicated our responsibility. i dont even think the people in power in govt, or economically are being responsible. they have no long term plan.
