Europe’s creditors are behaving exactly as one might naively predict private creditors would behave, seeking to get as much blood from the stone as quickly as possible, indifferent to the cost in longer-term growth. And that, in fact, is a puzzle! Greece’s creditors are not nervous lenders panicked over their own financial situation, but public sector institutions representing primarily governments that are in no financial distress at all. They really shouldn’t be behaving like this.


The world will hopefully find out over the next few years, just how much we owe the beautiful, courageous people of Greece. #GreeceIsTheWord

Yup. The economics are both simple and trivial. And even that figure of greeces debt is vastly overstated.  https://t.co/WJy80P8xdt

All this is possible without the mediation of intellectual prop- erty as a form of commodification of knowledge and is pos- sible without centralized control of knowledge resources or distribution and it is often made possible precisely thanks to radically democratic communities, like Debian18.

Most of the time, facing unpleasant truths fully reduces the apparently complex to the simple. Complexity as smokescreen is bad government.

  • Listening to the Rebuild Foundation’s Theaster Gates and author Charles Landry engage with the 32 winners of the Knight Cities Challenge in Detroit. Landry described the evolution from “City 1.0”‑ a hierarchical, rigidly public and private model— to “City 3.0” in which hybrid organizations empower residents to make and shape their cities to their needs.
