| 001 | Bill of Rights: To Protect The Individual From State and Corporation |
|---|---|
| The individual is forever being strangled by recession, pillaged by corporates or trampled by elephant-footed bureaucracies mindlessly adhering to idiot rules. | |
| 002 | Brasil: Ilustração de como uma Sociedade pode se tornar Equitativa |
| Como poderia um país escravizado pelo capitalismo global neoliberal desenfreado ser transformado em um paraíso de riqueza, bem-estar e equidade para todos? | |
| 003 | Brazil: Illustrative Model on How a Society Could Be Made Equitable |
| How could a country enslaved by unbridled neo-liberal global capitalism be transformed into a paradise of wealth, well-being, equity and fulfilment for all? | |
| 004 | Declaration of Human Rights Trapped in The Context of Capitalism |
| A United Nations Declaration of Human rights is laudable. But united nations are united governments. Each serves the interests of its country's dominant elite. | |
| 005 | Every Human Being Has a Fundamental Moral Right To Adequate Income |
| Under capitalism, most don't own means to turn their work into their needs of life. Morally therefore, those who do must compensate them with an income in lieu. | |
| 006 | Inheritance Bond: A Concept That Gives All a Stake in The Economy |
| It divides a nation's wealth equitably among its citizens. It is the convergence of political extremes. It is the final fusion of Capitalism and Socialism. | |
| 007 | Modern Employee is The Bonded Slave of The Corporate Collective |
| Most today seem to think slavery a thing of the oppressive past. But a closer look at the capitalist free market system soon shows slavery to be alive and well. | |
| 008 | Union Action Hurts Innocent Artisan More Than Guilty Corporate |
| The nature of the only means by which unions can exert pressure is more likely to cause collateral harm the innocent than to perturb their corporate masters. | |
| 009 | Where I Work: a Matter of Practicality or Corporate Bloody-Mindedness? |
| A universal wish among almost every employee and contractor I have spoken to on the subject has been eventually to leave employment and set up his own business. |
