Topic: OWS Holding a Conference on Alternative Currencies (Read 1511 times)

Its a from of anti-matter, and the dream of the OWS crowd.  They plan to generate one and smash it into the US economy thereby obliterating them both and ushering in a new era of social justice and economic equality...

In all seriousness I can't stand these tools.  They rail against corporations but shameless use the fruits of these entities.  If they were out there smashing their iphones and burning their clothes and moved to animal skins they hunted themselves, I would give them credit for for at least being consistent in their message.  Instead they deface public property, and shamelessly self promote themselves on various social networks.  These people are nothing more than attention seeking whores.  

The fuck is that?! 

What's an anti-market? I'm lost...

I lost all interest right there. Whatever these gentlemen come up with is going to be hopeless.

If you enjoy living in hippy communes and squatting in abandoned office buildings, this crap is for you.

They literally want a system where profit cannot be made, where growth is limited to a consumerist product or two in somebody's home. Thus the incentive for these systems to flourish is little to nil.

Call into the 'Call Out' mass conference call system at 772-597-9914 to listen to a discussion between two individuals who have been developing two different forms of alternative currency systems, in order to better understand how more abundantly available forms of exchange could potentially better meet everyone's needs and reduce our dependency on the Federal Reserve's money.

Devin Balkin is a social entrepreneur turned free/libre/open source activist. He has been involved in the alternative currency community for about 3 years. He's the founder or Sarap.is - a nonprofit dedicated to building an abundant world through the development, documentation and deployment of free/libre/opensource/solutions. He is currently working on the Occupy Wall Street PermaBank project, a free/libre/opensource gifting platform designed to develop into a personal exchange management platform.

Brendan Lewis is President and Co-Founder of Kelmscott, Inc; a company that invests in socially progressive technologies and founder of the Human Potential Project, a non-profit organization for the support of the humanities and sciences and their application towards human progress and development. They are currently in the process of developing socially progressive 'barter and trade' mobile application software aimed at fixing the deficiencies and inequalities present in the current U.S. markets and monetary system known as MINTA (money is not the answer).

The conversation will be modified by Harrison Schultz a PhD candidate in sociology at the New School for Social Research as well as a quantitative anti-market research analyst for the OWS affinity groups Revolutionary Games and occupywallst.org.
