[P2P-F] Emergency Financial Managers Bill Passes Michigan House and Senate

[Michel Bauwens]

Sam,

and our labor friends out there, I would really appreciate an assessment of
the Wisconsin mobilizations as a tippping point for the labor and global p2p
movement,

after the Arab uprisings, thanks for inspiring us again, this time from the
very heart of the beast,

after 30 years ever increasing and non-reciprocal value extraction out of
working people, it seems to time for reacting and rebuidling has finally
come about,

Michel
