Hi Larry. I do not remember how/where I first heard about your work, but in rummaging through files yesterday looking for something, I came upon a 2019 article of yours on analogical thinking, bunched into a folder on personal development/ideas for project, along with some others that just happen to be relevant to this post (role of worker/labor vis a vis the corporation/business-owners of capital and means of production).
I gathered it all up to help me think about responding to another recent post from within a group thinking about transforming society - capitalism, democracy-governance, spiritual development. The article was "The Adaptation Economy".
Part of my reply to it, should I write it, will address the crux of this post as part of necessary strategies for both changing/evolving Capitalism and emowering workers. It would be based on the principles delineated from the Democracy Collaborative, who is doing very good work. Broadly, these principles are: 1- Labor matters more than capital, 2- Local, broad-based ownership matters, 3-Active democratic ownership & participation matter, 4- Multipliers matter (community ecosystem of mutual business), 5- Localizing investment matters, 6- Collaboration matters, 7- Place really matter, 8- Community Wealth is where the next system begins.
I will explore other articles. Thanks for this post and what you are doing.
