"According to the libertarian litany, if an industry or an institution is making a profit, it is satisfying "wants" whose origins and content are deliberately disregarded. But what we want, what we are capable of wanting is relative to the forms of social organization. People "want" fast food because they have to hurry back to work, because processed supermarket food doesn't taste much better anyway, because the nuclear family (for the dwindling minority who have even that to go home to) is too small and too stressed to sustain much festivity in cooking and eating -- and so forth. It is only people who can't get what they want who resign themselves to want more of what they can get. Since we cannot be friends and lovers, we wail for more candy." - Bob Black ----- Original Message ----- From: <MWMorrill at aol.com> To: "Action Alerts for July 30" <Philly2000 at listbot.com> Sent: Sunday, July 09, 2000 11:08 AM Subject: [j30info] 21 Days 'til U2k-What you can do to make history

> There are only 21 days (3 WEEKS!!!) until Unity 2000 <www.unity2000.com>,
> the major march and rally on the eve of the Republican Convention in
> Philadelphia (July 30).
> We are all working hard to make sure that we have an event that will be

> TODAY'S TIP: WRITE A CHECK AND ASK A FRIEND TO DO THE SAME

> If today were July 3, 1776 and someone asked you to donate $100 to buy
paper
> so the Declaration of Independence could be distributed to the public,
would
> you give it?
>
> If we were living in the 50's and you had the opportunity to financially
> support the Montgomery Bus Boycott, would you write a check?
>
> If you were given the opportunity to help make history, would you jump at
the

you
> are given today.

> Unity 2000 will need about $100,000 to make history on July 30. We are
far
> from that goal. We've had some encouraging news in the last week, but we
> still need everyone's help. If everyone on our email lists gave $35 we
would
> be able to cover the entire budget. We know that's not going to happen,
so
> we're asking everyone to do what they can. If all you can afford is $10,
> then send that. If you can afford $1000, then please send it as soon as
you
> can.
>
> After you write your check, tell a friend about July 30 and ask her/him to
> match your amount. People are more likely to give when asked by a friend
who
> is already committed.
>
> Help us make history. Write a check today!
