Our house is on fire. Join the resistance: Do no harm/take no shit. My idiosyncratic and confluent bricolage of progressive politics, the collaborative commons, next generation cognitive neuroscience, American pragmatism, de/reconstruction, dynamic systems, embodied realism, postmetaphysics, psychodynamics, aesthetics. It ain't much but it's not nothing.

Study finds that government listens to the rich
Big surprise, eh? See this report. While it's true that despite popular opinion polls, the rich get what they want and the government could give a shit less about the people. However the study did find that the government listens to 'interest groups,' especially when the rich are involved. So one progressive strategy is to form giant interest groups where the progressive rich are involved. Yes, there are progressive rich people like George Soros and Bill Maher, so the key is to organize with money behind you. Recall this article about the noblesse oblige, so let's enlist them to organize with us. Moveon.org is one such example.
