There has to be an alternative

I supposed I mustn't be miffed when Jeremy Corbyn plagiarises the thoughts set down in my blogs over the last four years but if he is eventually successful in winning the next general election I will be happy.

For too long the concept that there is no alternative to globalised capital and the vice like grip it has on National Economies has to be addressed. There are alternatives to the corporate view, there is an opportunity to re-energise a wider perspective on the human capital which our schools produce. Investment and training, involvement in the working process, reinvigorating people by giving the workforce a say in how we run our businesses. For too long the workers voice within the industry has been an anathema to the boardroom, too long common sense and on the job expertise has been relegated to only one skill set, the financial one where the bean counter has remained supreme.

It's not pie in the sky  it's a recognition that society and the workers in that society have enormous value and that value is multiplied by giving people a feeling of their own worth possibly the most significant stimulant one can give to a nation.
For too long the economist and the financial guy who draws up the books of commerce , from the banking fraternity, and the traders, from the financial journalist and the political pundit all these voices have been commentating on the need for conformity, conformity and uniformity to go along with the needs of global capital. The needs of a privileged select few, of the exceedingly wealthy who defer to no one, who have escaped the responsibilities of belonging to society and have created their own society on the yachts in Monaco in the exclusive hotel suites and behind the gated security of their homes.
99 % of the people on earth are controlled by only 1 %.
55 % of the worlds wealth lays in the hands of this 1%
Regularly 35 % of the 99 %, vote for the 1 % and keep them in power.
Even Warren Buffet, one of the richest, has criticised and lambasted the system.
The status quo is maintained by a lack of faith in alternative systems and a carefully contrived mis-information system which perpetuates the deceit in the papers we read and the media station we tune into.
