Ask Caitlin Johnstone (nicely!) to consider participatory economics.

I am a big fan of Johnstone, and she's just posted on her website an open-ended request for questions. So ask her (politely! She's one of the good ones!) to consider parecon. This is winnable, and would actually represent a step forward for the left if someone with her talent, skills, and esteem were to react favorably.

• A website introducing parecon (participatory economics). Parecon is an alternate economic model to both capitalism as well as all forms of socialism. I claim that parecon is both a necessary and sufficient condition for the liberation of the working class:
