Big Brother,--The Swansong Of The Systam?

         Across the planet capitalist states are tightening there security, Spain, Greece,  Canada, Switzerland, America, and here in the UK we are seeing a re-vamp of the snoopers charter and anti-union legislation, making it more difficult to organise protest through strikes. Of course all this legislation is directed at you and I, though the state spouts that it is anti-terrorist. However in the eyes of the capitalist world anybody that doesn't like their brutal exploitation, falls into the category of "terrorist". We can perhaps look at this in a positive manner, as the more they tighten their big brother surveillance, the more they feel the system is threatened. As they put their surveillance into panic mode, can we see the whole rotten edifice starting to crumble and come crashing down? Only the mass of ordinary people can accelerate that process.

From Stimulator TV:

Big Brother--eh?

           This week we break Bill C-51, down Klanada’s sinister new law, that would give the Canucks increased spying powers over its population. On the break, long standing hip-hop act Onyx, returns with “Fuck The Law.” We wrap things up with an interview with Antoine, a computer security ninja, about how we can protect ourselves from surveillance.

The Impossibility Of Infinite Growth.

An extract from an interesting article from Void Mirror:

     We have reached an impasse. Capitalism as we know it is coming apart at the seams. But as financial institutions stagger and crumble, there is no obvious alternative. Organized resistance is scattered and incoherent. The global justice movement is a shadow of its former self. For the simple reason that it's impossible to maintain perpetual growth on a finite planet, it's possible that in a generation or so capitalism will no longer exist. Faced with this prospect, people's knee-jerk reaction is often fear. They cling to capitalism because they can't imagine a better alternative. 

 

   

       How did this happen? Is it normal for human beings to be unable to imagine a better world?

PLEASE DON'T HURT US???

      

         The European Trade Union Confederation is staging a European Day of Action on 29 September next. It will be made up of a Euro-demonstration in Brussels and trade union actions in the various European countries. The European trade unions will be demonstrating against the austerity measures adopted recently by many European countries, and to demand recovery plans in favour of quality jobs and growth.

        This is not enough, little pockets of demonstrators dotted around Europe will not have any effect on the powers that be. What is needed is an indefinite pan-European general strike. To call on the workers to politely form marches here and there asking the financial world not to hurt them too much is a retrograde step. We want to change the system, we don't want more of the same. If we want that better world for all, we can't simply ask for more of what we have just had. All the workers of this world have to do to change it for ever is just simply fold their arms. Stay at home, read a book, take the kids for a walk, go for a cycle, then organise your community and work place the way you want it to be, but don't turn up to be employed by the parasites, occupy your work place.

         This action by the European TUC should be expanded, it should be seen as the opportunity to grasp the moment and take control of our lives and free ourselves from the yoke of exploitation by the parasitical financial greed merchants and their state mouthpieces the politicians. We could take that step to start the creation of that better world based on mutual aid that sees to the needs of all our people and consign this system of greed and profit to the dustbin of history. We don't want to beg for work, we don't want to to say “Please don't cut my social services, my health service or my kids education but do keep exploiting me.” We want to change the world and only we the workers will do that for the benefit of the workers.
