It seems to me very rare for three general strikes to be called in as many months and if they are interested in destroying capitalism rather than getting back to the point things were at a few years go, they should be attempting to channel and organize this outrage into institutions that can replace it, not the ones that sustain it. The banners hung at the Acropolis yesterday were daring and inspiring and I hope they were more than rhetoric. ________________________________________________ Send list submissions to: Marxism@lists.econ.utah.edu Set your options at: http://lists.econ.utah.edu/mailman/options/marxism/archive%40mail-archive.com
