		<description>This is a great read on your take for how we got where we are. Luckily now knowledge is being spread father thanks to the internet and hopefully more will use it to do good to help out not only themselves but everyone on as well as out planet.</description>

		<description>Que cada um faça sua parte é uma condição necessaria, fundamental e indispensavel para mudar o mundo. Nisso estamos 100% de acordo e, me parece, meu comentario vai nesse sentido.
O que eu disse a mais, para ampliar a discussão, é que isso so não basta: precisamos fazer nossas partes JUNTOS (e eu acho que ninguém pode obrigar alguém a se unir, so podemos convencer da necessidade de uma união), criando-se assim uma relação de força capaz de obrigar (e não &quot;ensinar&quot;) governos a mudar de posição.</description>

		<description>I agree our power is small next to governments&#039; and that capitalism won&#039;t stop for anything by itself.

But, my point is deeper than it might seem. Greenpeace would put a sign on the wall, I&#039;m saying we should put a sign inside ourselves.

We are, after all, the same human beings that will vote (or would be voted) in the next elections. We are the ones that will shape the future, if we don&#039;t change ourselves, how can we change the world?

Lots of people think that their part in the world is just to sit and wait for changes. Even those that do agree it&#039;s all wrong, they won&#039;t bother changing anything and would happily live by the oppressing rules of modern capitalism, even thinking it&#039;s the &quot;right way&quot;.

If we stop ranting about capitalism and start teaching people (not governments) to discern good from bad, we can than later appeal to reason rather than forcing them to accept our points of view.

Knowledge has power, people have knowledge. People can change the world. My final point is that knowledge is more powerful than governments and even money.</description>

		<description>Excellent analysis!
Como conclusão, você pede(e espera?)que quants e programadores façam sua parte. Penso que &quot;it is necessary but not enough&quot;. Enquanto Governos continuarem a investir apenas em pesquisas cientificas que geram lucros incalculaveis a laboratorios privados; enquanto Governos continuarem a nacionalizar apenas a parte &quot;podre&quot; de bancos e de empresas de financiamento, ao mesmo tempo em que privatizam educação, saude e transporte; enquanto Governos continuarem a investir somas astronômicas em armas nucleares (não para se defenderem, mas para se criarem uma imagem de poder), fica dificil de imaginar que se cada um de nos fizer sua parte, nos vamos mudar o mundo.
Cada vez que ha uma &quot;crise&quot;, os governos capitalistas fazem belos discursos no sentido de moralizar o sistema, criando regras de controle e regulamentação e a coisa não funciona! Por que sera? Deixo Marx responder por mim:
&quot; O Capital tem horror da ausência de lucro. Quando ele prevê um lucro razoavel, ele fica ousado. A 20%, ele fica entusiasta; a 50%, temerario; a 100%, ele pisoteia todas as leis humanas e a 300%, ele não recua diante de nenhum crime.&quot; Karl Marx, O Capital, cap 22)</description>
