Hammock and sickle: A lazy argument for Socialist Leisure.
Jul 29 2017
We will not invest our time into mastering a trade. We will not devote our lives to contributing labor to a company or a municipality or, god forbid, a government, against the empty promise that it will support us with a pension in our old age. Simply put: we will not devote. Governments, companies and municipalities have earned nothing but our distrust, and we owe them nothing more.
In a Moment of Truth, Jeff Dorchen returns to the principles of the Socialist Leisure Party - defending the cause from busybodies on the right and left, explaining what Kenny Rogers just didn't understand about risk, and making the case for taking a permanent smoke break from our jobs refilling the shrimp station in the nightmarish casino of global capital.
