Re: To sum up. (none / 0)

There is one fundamental fact to bear in mind: there are more of us (bar the sleepwalkers). This is vital in any system that includes universal suffrage in rights and opportunities. Thus we should focus on all systems that enable the 'more', whether print, electronic, local or global.

I see IT as the best bet as leverage because it is relatively easily scaleable, and has low transaction cost.
