Anarchism
by Bill Kauffman

But except for the anarchist-tinged Industrial Workers of the World, the radical labor union that reached its zenith in the early twentieth century, anarchists have never been adept organizers.

 

I've got news for you Bill.

How then can I arrange this equitable exchange?

One must depend upon the other; and thay may be news.

tNP Staff you can Contact Directly:

or

Letters for Publication:

 

Words are a terrible thing to waste.

Here is the plan:

Write this post and link it to an e-mail. Just one e-mail sent to one of those listed as direct contacts. My conscience abhors individual crimes of commercialism. If my efforts toward equitable exchange are not wanted, then, my one product will exceed the demand. The product must sell itself.

Next on the list would be a letter to be submitted for publication. It too would need to be equitable; and how tough can that be?

It stands to reason that the goal must be a negotiated settlement of value for value and therefore a means must exist by which one can communicate value if one has any chance whatsoever to exchange value. One cannot, for example, want something that is invisible.

I've already begun the process; having elected to identify a specific contention and therefore, for my part, I have already received the initial offer from my potential partner in this specific commerce called Anarchism.

Here is the offer I choose to receive:

anarchists have never been adept organizers.

The above is as true as:

Individuals have never been adept organizers.

That should do it.

Now what?

One cannot see the value of something that is invisible.

I'll send this much: To whom it may concern
