It is far too modest. What is required is far bolder and absolutely necessary: the elimination of the present system of capitalism to be replaced by the construction of a new society dedicated to the welfare of all and one that functions in harmony with the ecology of our planet.

Please abandon this effort and put energy into creating new societies like what the people at “A World to Win” (http://www.aworldtowin.net/Manifesto/Intro.html) are doing.

Without that, however good and improved the conditions of labour in minimum wage or reduced hours of working week etc, it is still serving an alien master, rather than taking full responsibility for the products of its work.

I suggest 1) that it needs to have some real use value which can be repaired or recycled, 2)that it should not consume valuable limited resources unless it is agreed to be an essential product, 3)that its production does not contribute to global warming.
