 b-210721/\n\nJoin XR Boston's Book Club as we read “The Power of Neighbo
 rhood and The Commons” by P.M. In our next session\, we will informally 
 discuss the remainder of Part Two and Part Three (page 43 through the end 
 of the book)\, via Zoom.\n\nSign up below to receive the Zoom link prior t
 o the session.\n\nAbout the book:\n“The anonymous Swiss author of bolo 
 bolo and Akiba offers a new practical proposal for reshaping the future
 \, based on this prognosis of the present: Our economic system is stumblin
 g from one collapse to the next.... Our system is fundamentally flawed and
  destabilized by internal contradictions. To point out one of them: income
  can only be generated by work\, but work is getting scarce at the moment 
 and will become even scarcer in the future. Thus the purchasing power that
  capital needs to realize value is strangulated by itself. These contradic
 tions are being deferred into the future by financial manipulations.... Th
 e metaphor of the train racing towards an abyss and the need to pull the e
 mergency brake must spring to mind. Since the braking distance has meanwhi
 le become longer than the distance to the abyss\, we have to think in term
 s of parachutes.”
