Learn or Die: The New American Revolution

There is no mystery to why stories about vampires and the living dead are so popular in the United States. They are true stories about a horrible reality that we are too afraid to face except as harmless fantasies filtered through our mass media. Even the vampire capitalists can't face their true image in the mirror. They hide the truth in a labyrinth of illusions and lies, and the truth is the Minotaur that will gore us all. It is the truth that can be summarized in two sentences that compounded have turned the American Dream into a nightmare. One, democracy is a revolution that has never been won; and two, capitalism will kill us all.

Learn or Die: The New American Revolution is an inspired vision and a unique transformational paradigm rooted in our finest traditions, yet it is totally new, reflecting the hopes and dreams of a new generation. At the same time, it is a how-to-manual on where we have been, where we are now, and what we need to do to get out of this labyrinthian nightmare of planetary self-destruction that we have created for ourselves.
Learn or Die is the bridge across the abyss and the way to a true democracy where, as citizen lawmakers, we make our own laws at all levels of government as a check and balance against of representative system of government that does not represent the will of the people. But that is only the half of it. Learn or Die is also the bridge to a direct and participatory economic democracy of the People, by the People, and for the People where the American people go in partnership with American workers, which is to say they go into partnership with themselves in an economic system where we turn capitalism on its head. US 2.0, the alternative government and economy that we create in Learn or Die, is an organic concept of politics and economics where money as blood flows through the body politic and nurtures us all, and if the body politic is pricked anywhere, everyone says, “Ouch!” Quite simply, it is a glimpse into the infinite in all of us.
