While Michael Moore is out pimping his new economic model, there is the other Wouldn’t It Be Nice to Really Pay What You Wish? Which I really hope makes a break out play soon. A part of what I see in a shift from a social darwinism based upon the spencerianist "red in tooth and claw" competitiveness, to a Roughgardenianist based co-operativeness, would be the shift from getting all that you can, to a get what you need. We can hope that the new generation growing up in a more transparent socially interactive media will be willing to take on these types of risks.

Hoisted from Comments: A Jury of Prosecutors Would Hang John Yoo High where there is still discussion about how it would be Another thought: it is almost surely better for Berkeley to act against Yoo than for the Justice Department to do so--for the Justice Department to do so would be to take a step in the direction that led Caesar to lead his army across the Rubicon. Since we may need to find a way for civilians to regulate these forms of criminal conspiracies. What Do We Do About John Yoo? unfortunately remains an open question.
Helpful advice from MoJoWire - NOTE: this might have been a lynching, but we don't really know yet.
