My namesake, Mikhail Bakunin, the great anarchist, had the idea of a society run by labor unions and guilds in place of political parties. Makes a lot of sense if you think about it.

Like those but try explaining that last one to your conservative neighbour.

Interesting, Frank Lloyd Wright? Really??? Curious, since he never once designed any house that could remotely be considered affordable by the average worker. His clients were all quite affluent. His houses were wonderful but sprawling. He was known to have called modest, affordable houses a blight on the landscape. Not exactly what I call a socialist sensibility or method. (I was an architecture student before changing course into sociology and psychiactric social work)

Thank you for posting this. Every time I get called a socialist(or liberal, progressive, leftist, etc) I have the same response: how’s that a BAD thing?!
