"The current financial meltdown has revealed deep structural flaws in the Capitalist system that have yet to be addressed by governments or institutions. What alternatives do we as individuals and communities have when faced with money issued by a centralized authority that props up military expansion, maintains artificial scarcity, and feeds the insatiable greed of a tiny financial elite?
For our second Evolver Spore, we will investigate the current economic paradigm and explore workable alternatives to it, such as time banks and complementary currencies, that communities can use now. We also look at the broader systemic solutions proposed by economic theorists like Tom Greco and Bernard Lietaer.

I hope to attend as well.
When an old time is over
and a new time is still dust
not yet a star

Right on Drew welcome aboard.
For our second Evolver Spore, we will investigate the current economic paradigm and explore workable alternatives to it, such as time banks and complementary currencies, that communities can use now. We also look at the broader systemic solutions proposed by economic theorists like Tom Greco and Bernard Lietaer.
Please review some of the articles in Reality Sandwich by these authors.
We will also discuss how we can make Evolver Chicago become a bigger group and host events and learn to grow as a community.
Anything you can add or bring to our group is welcomed!!
We will our reality,
