We can be Heroes

Okay, so we've gotta do something to fix society, or move it closer to the right track at least.  I just can't really decide what the first thing to do should be.  Food not bombs starting this summer.  Treehouse fort starting this summer.  Biking groups starting this summer.  But all of that is just recreational stuff, in my opinion.

Maybe I could find some way to start a worker-owned, worker-run company?  One of the terrible results of living in Eastern Europe is that you come to realize that market economies are just way way more efficient than command economies, and then you get to start wanting a worker-run market economy.  I'm not a full-fledged ancap yet or anything like that, but it's gotten pretty far along.  So what sort of company should I start?  Who wants in?  And where the fuck can I get the starting capital?

Maybe these problems are why this isn't often tried.

Oh, in other news, I've spent the last three weeks fighting a horrific eye infection.  Probably the worst medical problem I've had in my whole life.  I thought for a while I was going to lose the eye... although that's probably partly because I'm a hypochondriac.
