On the the point made about constructing better systems rather than simply tearing down what we currently have, we have started a project here recently that aims to explore this very thing in a virtual fashion. This might interest you and @adamkokesh both.

It's called #nth-society and is an open source, forkable, "unmanaged" collaboration. We would love to have you and everyone else that might read this explore, critique or contribute ideas so as to in any sense participate in the experiment that we are trying to create together!
