Christopher Wroth replied to Ben Roberts's discussion Where are we at, what has worked well and what is "missing' now?"Thank you, Mark, for your implied support of civil disobedience.

Christopher Wroth replied to Ben Roberts's discussion Where are we at, what has worked well and what is "missing' now?"Well, just my opinion, but I think where we are is "dazed and confused". The arrests of last fall left many with legal hassles they can't afford, and the police were more than ready to not allow anything much on Mayday.…"
Christopher Wroth replied to Ben Roberts's discussion Where are we at, what has worked well and what is "missing' now?"Hi Ben ~ Utopia is simple. Only one inner goal - peace of mind. Only one outer goal - basic human needs met for all. Everything else is just a distraction. ~ Chris

Christopher Wroth replied to Ben Roberts's discussion Occupy Meets Transition (etc.) Cafe Call and Beyond in the group Alternative Economy"Hi Anna ~ Yes, money is not wealth. I would alter your second sentence a little to read: Money is used to regulate perceived scarcity by giving an advantage to the wealthier citizens. I call it "perceived" scarcity…"
Christopher Wroth replied to Jitendra Darling's discussion Occupy Heart 6/1: Occupy "New Mind""I think that avoiding conclusions is pretty much always a good thing."
Christopher Wroth replied to Jitendra Darling's discussion Occupy Heart 6/1: Occupy "New Mind""Perfect. Much potential in an experiment like this. Too busy at the moment to participate, so thanks very much to Ben for the scribing. Will participate by post. love, Chris Wroth "
Christopher Wroth replied to Mark E. Smith's discussion How to respond to misuse of NVC?"The native people living here solved this problem long before our European invasion and conquest. They used a talking stick. Of course, they grew up with the cultural knowledge about how to use, not abuse, a talking stick. On the…"
Christopher Wroth commented on Jim Macdonald's blog post Some Thoughts on Patriarchy"And maybe we are at the start of a revolution and also evolving at the same time. Economic evolution, not economic revolution, may bring about economic justice for most people. Challenges are big and time is short. I hope that…"
Christopher Wroth commented on Jim Macdonald's blog post Some Thoughts on Patriarchy"Ben ~ Great models for alternative lifestyles and local economies have always been with us. When was Mother Earth News first published? Remember Henry George? These models are the 1% of the economy. Wal-mart, Amazon, Target,…"
Christopher Wroth commented on Jim Macdonald's blog post Some Thoughts on Patriarchy"Yes, a good three-part question. I am curious as to how you would answer."
Christopher Wroth commented on Jim Macdonald's blog post Some Thoughts on Patriarchy"If global capitalist imperialism is the cause of global economic injustice, and is itself caused by patriarchy, then the question remains: "How can global patriarchy be replaced with something better?" "
Christopher Wroth commented on Jim Macdonald's blog post Some Thoughts on Patriarchy"Jim ~ First, let me thank you for your excellent writing and thinking on this site. Also, it is very helpful to learn about what others are doing. Thank you for the info on Bozeman. And at the same time, thanks to the site stewards…"
