2915 [lbo-talk] The Left has more than enough mystique and values, but lacks discipline and accountability -- rank: 190

Fernando: "So, moving on, is there any evidence of public sector efficiency measurements in former soviet bloc countries?. Public sector "reform" (for enfficiency, not shutdown/privatization)." [WS:] It depends how you look at this. They were clearly aware of the potential malfeasance of managers, and instituted measures to control it. One ...

2916 [lbo-talk] The Left has more than enough mystique and values, but lacks discipline and accountability -- rank: 190

1) What do YOU mean by efficiency? 2) Do you accept the dualism in the paper you've linked us to - efficiency as lowered costs vs efficiency as values realization? Further, while I stopped reading it after it put me to sleep, isn't the whole point of the article that ...

2918 [lbo-talk] Fidel on Libya -- rank: 190

I never took Julio for a 21st Century Socialism and Build the Fifth International Guy.... There's been a fair amount of internal discussion in Solidarity about Fidel's only slightly ambiguous support for Qaddafi, and what it reveals about the limits of a campist approach. In brief, those who split ...

2919 [lbo-talk] Lind on the post-union future -- rank: 190

Wrong on both counts, I think. Lind is not writing in calm times about shrinking union density and the need for a long-term strategy for universal social benefits. He's writing at a time when public sector workers are under attack in Wisconsin and elsewhere, suggesting that now is a ...

2920 [lbo-talk] Obama reelection prospect -- rank: 190

We mostly agree here. On everything but the essential, alas. Race and ethnicity - not the same thing, and not because of biology. Racial classifications lock one into a situation where one is not free not to be a member of that race. Ethnicity is less constraining (e.g., I grew up ...

2924 [lbo-talk] labor leadership not so sure about Wisconsin -- rank: 190

Thank you Alan Lack of organization is a weakness here (as is the acquiescent influence of the Democratic party). The solidarity is real but only as a feeling. There is growing recognition of the objective power working people have to shut things down but it's slow. Occupying the Capitol and ...
