  • Capitalism naked.

    I like to listen to Luigi and Bethany because they are able to discuss capitalism without trashing it, though they discuss why and the so many ways it doesn’t work, they still let us imagine what we can do to improve it within our microscopic cosmos.

  • Outside the Arena

    Some might say there’s nothing so absurd as what can be found in the theories of academics, excepting, perhaps, the narratives of journalists.
