The tragic thing about the sharp division in all our North-Central Wisco communities is,

We are ALL gonna be living thru this "Greater Depression of the Decade of the 2020s" beginning in about 36 months' time (a wild-ass guess when the kickoff will happen).

Stay tuned. The tragic thing about all this is that we're so freakin' divided in our communities we won't be able to pull together for Community Survivalism.

And no, individualistic survivalism in the economic crash isn't going to be a "thing."

Roubini is usually right in his predictions. He predicted the 2008 sh*t-show in the economy we now call the "Great Recession."

Thought for today: The youth of Gen. Zero are up against the peak inequality, USA, in many ways.

So, before you go posting some ageist Meme about "what's wrong with these youths today,"

consider their predicament.

If we are going to organize local base organizations to put an end to peak inequality, then we're going to need much more than the recycled tropes and memes about our precarious predicament which we see every dayon social media.

We're going to need deep study -- data, analysis and critique, peer-reviewed stuff, you know?

This blog piece gets at how Peak Inequality creates two separate worlds which the people live in -- a middle-income, yet precarious, world, which edges nearer collapse with each passing month; and a world in which a growing portion of our people live in an already-collapsed economy, where people are less-healthy and live shorter lives.

Here is Chapter Six of the ongoing non-fiction novel "Our Economy, Deteriorating."

It's an update of Nouriel Roubini's April, 2020 interview in which he speaks of ten deadly drivers for a "Greater Depression of the Decade of the 2020s," not this year or next but the middle of decade it should set in.

We added two additional deadly drivers not mentioned by Roubini.

Trick Question: Will a greater depression ease the peak inequality of the USA, or will it exacerbate it?

Working with Generation Zero, Gen Z or "Zoomers" in climate-change focused groups you get a real sense of the absolute inequality of political/economic power this youngest generation in the workforce really has.

Nonetheless, as Cal State University professor Dr. Gayle H. Kimball writes, this generation are driving change-making not only on the climate front, but also on the democracy front, worldwide. They're starting to abolish inequality and older generations should support that.

QUALITIES OF A GOOD ORGANIZER
(where it says "union" or "workplace" substitute "community" for community organizers; substitute "community members" for "co-workers."

•Effective organizers are good at their jobs and respected by the people they work with.

•They have the trust of their co-workers. Their opinions carry weight. When they offer advice, people listen.

•The best organizers are motivated by a strong sense of justice and clear principles.

•They’re responsible, honest, and compassionate.

•They’re confident, even courageous.

•Organizers must be good listeners. They know you don’t have to be the most vocal to have the biggest impact.

•They bring people together, welcoming new co-workers on the job and looking for ways to involve every member.

•Organizers move people to collective action.They don’t just solve problems alone—they equip their co-workers to solve problems together.

•They put the interests of the group first, ahead of their individual concerns.•They don’t operate as lone rangers. They respect group decisions.

•Good organizers are knowledgeable about their contract, but not afraid to admit when they don’t know the answer.

•They can stay cool under pressure and handle stress and conflict.

•They’re willing to stand up to management—and they can inspire others to stand up for themselves as well.

Looking for the source of housing inequality / homelessness in the USA at this time?

First, examine the Case-Shiller house-price index, which also tends to drive *rents* in a metro area.

Then, go back to Y2k, year 2000. Draw a flat line across to Y2.02 K or 2020. This flat line is the secular-stagnated incomes of the non-elite workers, the base working class, of the USA.

Get the idea, now?

We can track the Secular Stagnation of workers'/poor folks' income to the year 1980, Dawn of the Reagan-Thatcher Neoliberalism Era, 1980-present. Note the income flat-lining (stagnation) vs. productivity rise. Leadup to Peak Inequality

The origins of this page go back to the environmental justice movement spawned out of 350-Stevens Point, one of the 350-org chapters governed entirely by student leaders at UWSP.

The page came about during marches against the Enbridge tar sands pipelines through indigenous country in Minnesota-Wisconsin-Michigan, and the disruptive effort at BP's tar sands refinery in Whiting, Indiana, led by Cailie Kafura, Gordon Cunningham, "Johnny Dangers", Vince Houle and others from the North-Central Wisc. region.

The actions at BP Whiting Refinery featured a speakers' list in which Bill McKibben of 350 was the only white guy speaking. Other speakers were non-white folks from around the Great Lakes Bio-region.

This page just takes environmental justice a step further into the abolition of inequality of wealth, income, and the political power that derives from wealth and income.
