Your choice = fascism or Co-operative Socialism Neo-liberalism was the liberals in Canada and Blair/Thatcher here. The new game is Neo-conservatism - Stephen Harper in Canada - Ian Duncan-Smith here. The neo-cons are just fascism-lite - the real fascism is the full integration of state and capitalism: which we haven't got yet, since there are no designated concentration camps for the likes of you and me - yet. This isn't assertive, but, rather analytical - see www.politicalcompass.org At the latter you can find out where your political centre-of-gravity is - mine is in the Gandhi quadrant. Fortunately, there is an element of each quadrant in each of us - the best place to map this is, that I've found, www.positivelymary.com (you have to register bu the consequential e-newsletters are few and far between). Finally, evidence that the political/values centres-of-gravity are socially-produced and, thus, capable of being encouraged in the beneficial direction (progressive and experiential, I'm quite clear) is to be found via a search for Michael Adam's book 'Fire and Ice' and his Canadian company, Environics: http://www.environics.ca/ Try the 'Find Your Tribe' button on the right-hand side of the page. Hope this helps and thanx! 4 the opportunity to write it. For all johnhttp://www.environics.ca/
