	Thread started: Sep 7 2009, 11:10 PM EDT Watch Your site is informative, but needs proofreading. Also, knowing you probably have a micro-budget to work with, I understand your need for a free website, I suggest you use www.weebly.com. Weebly doesn't display advertisements in user sites, yet it's free, because it's underwritten by corporate benefactors, hence the lack of ads. I have a site at: http://sleepyhollowjewelry.weebly.com/. 1 out of 1 found this valuable. Do you find this valuable? Do you? Keyword tags: None (edit keyword tags) Post reply
jimmiller5418	Just say NO to high speed rail service	Home Category: General Discussion	0	Apr 20 2009, 9:21 PM EDT by jimmiller5418
	Thread started: Apr 20 2009, 9:21 PM EDT Watch I am dead against highspeed rail service: 1. It only works serving major cities. 2. The tracks do not stay straight and level and eventually the trains have to slow way down. 3. An elevated tracked air cushion vehicle would do better. 4. A Maglev method would do better. 5. Let's work on reducing the number trip miles traveled by vehicles powered excluisvely by internal comustion engines. 6. Start forming mini-towns around (even in urban and suburban areas) the idea where "We work where we live, and we live where we work". This is the start of the "small is good" approach to city, county and state planning "as if people mattered" as against planning "as if only vehicles, the automakers and the oil companies mattered." 7. Support startup worker cooperative whose members live in the same ecovillage, work various jobs and run various businesses in this democratic worker community. See: http://masallp.wetpaint.com.

jimmiller5418	Mondragon has a better solution to layoffs during hard time	MONDRAGON CONFLICT Category: General Discussion	0	Apr 3 2009, 6:43 PM EDT by jimmiller5418
	Thread started: Apr 3 2009, 6:43 PM EDT Watch Excerpt; Problems may be shared with competitors, but solutions are not. A workers’ co-op has its hands tied. It cannot make members redundant or, in Mondragón’s case, sell companies or divisions. Losses in one unit are covered by the others. “It can be painful at times, when you are earning, to give to the rest,” Mr Zabala admits. Lossmaking co-ops can be closed, but members must be re-employed within a 50km (30-mile) radius. That may sound like a nightmare for managers battling recession. But co-ops also have their advantages. Lay-offs, short hours and wage cuts can be achieved without strikes, and agreements are reached faster than in companies that must negotiate with unions and government bodies under Spanish labour law.
