REvision.jpg

Some say it's time for American civilization to die. Come and join us for an electric night when Howard Bloom will tell Daniel Pinchbeck why American civilization has just begun to live--and how it will be saved and upgraded by - guess who? - YOU.

"Machine-gun raconteur and scientist, ex PR magnate to the stars, and author of "The Genius of the Beast: A Radical Re-Vision of Capitalism", Howard Bloom is a speaker of incendiary mercurial intellect" (Village Voice). Emceed by Daniel Pinchbeck, author and founder of Reality Sandwich and Evolver and who disagrees with Bloom about EVERYTHING. Forget sparks. Minds will fly! Bloom's first roaring rant in NYC for 4 years. Don't miss it!

Stay for discussion and mingling with great food and bar.

"If all activity of every institution, organization, and individual must answer to economic viability as the final arbiter, then decisions will always be made about dollars and cents."

 

I am not sure how you envision a world without economic viability? In what ways do you find it to be a "final arbiter." Why do non-profit organizations exist? http://www.theemotionmachine.com

Go check this OUT!!!

Howard Bloom has one of the most profound minds I have ever encountered. I fortunately have read an advance copy of this book. Let me tell you, this book is waaay beyond the concept of almost anything you could imagine what the economy is or should be. Howard starts the book with laying out the down and dirty of what is going on today, THEN he brings in the cosmos and spirit and biology and consciousness into his work.

Don't  dismiss this book even if you are hard core against the idea of money. Howard wants to re-ignite this country with a reinvigorate vision! Even if you end up not agreeing with him , you will definitely be taken on a wild ride and you will look at everything around you in a new light.

This guy must be really out

This guy must be really out of the loop. Is he not aware that the current capitalist system is being driven to the ground by the likes of the fiat-based Federal Reserve banking cartel? The dollar is soon to be no more. What will replace it is a global centralized debt-based currency system, most likely computerized exclusively, and all manner of finance as we now know it will be gone. Please watch the documentary "Zeitgeist: Addendum". http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=7065205277695921912#

Debate winner will use TINY Time Tokens

"Howard Bloom will tell Daniel Pinchbeck why American civilization has just begun to live--and how it will be saved and upgraded by - guess who? - YOU." "Special presentation and invitation to join Time Interchange New York (TINY), a complimentary currency system that is re-visioning capitalism here on our own doorstep." Jct: Whoever uses the complementary currency to effect repair will be the winner of the debate. With Africa trading with mobile-phone minutes, Arabia trading with phone cards, with Hours being traded in Ithaca and TINY New York, with Greencredits being traded in LETS, the banks get no interest. And the movement to cut the middleman out of the usury is growing. With Facebook, Twitter, Graigslist, offering social currencies to their databases, with governments doing inter-national barter deals, the use of these new self-created social credits all around the world is undergoing unheralded growth but the use of interest-free time-based currency is key. When the local currency is pegged to the Time Standard of Money (how many dollars per hour of volunteer labor, children too) Hours earned locally can be intertraded with other timebanks globally! In 1999, I paid for 39/40 nights in Europe with an IOU for a night back in Canada worth 5 Hours. You can too. U.N. Millennium Declaration UNILETS Resolution C6 to governments is for a time-based currency to restructure the global financial architecture.
