For over forty years I have been writing pamphlets and newsletters to try and inspire the southern worker to think about the group and not just the individual, to organize in some way to gain more power and traction to balance out the power that has long worked against them. It's been an uphill battle, the southern mind set is highly individualistic and at the same time believes that the only help he or she needs in the work place is from God. In recent years the average worker has been able to get enough credit to buy a car and a house and although it keeps him perpetually in debt he seems satisfied with the crumbs and the credit that falls from the table. There is a desperate need to update our thinking so that we don't have to die in debt and so that there will be money and property to leave to our children. There is a lot of stress in the southern family and it's been there so long that most everyone thinks its the norm. But in this wealthy nation with the top one percent having forty percent of the money something needs to be done to right the concept of equality. Individual action will not get the job done. There's about ninety nine of us to one of them but that still doesn't even up the score. Why? Because they have money power, property power and the power of influence. It might well take five hundred are even five thousand to balance out the power against just one of them. It will take brains, persistence and strategy and a lot of people time to change thing for the better. It can be done with all the modern social tools but we will have to learn to say the right things to the right people and we will have to say them over and over. My hope is that we can change the conversation; listen to a group of your fellow workers here in the south and you will see that the conversation is not moving toward a solution. The average southern worker is not steeped enough in our history to understand that history is repeating itself. What to do? If only we could get something to take off and really go viral, something that becomes a game changer. Will it happen? It hasn't yet! The south has dug in generation after generation. They will not be moved but they desperately need to gain a new focus on the future and how group action can bring about positive change. What can you do to move us in the right direction? [more]

Although I have spent the last 40 years running a business I have also spent a lot of time working with young people trying to help them make their way in the world. That has included going before judges and bailing several out of jail. It also has meant spending hundreds of hours counselling different ones and trying to get their life on track. If you are a successful type A individual this book is probably not for you. At the same time I'm guessing that you know two or more people who need the advice found in this small book. I encourage you to print it off and share it with someone who is struggling and seems to keep falling back, making the same mistakes over and over again. If you are working with young people in some capacity then to print off and/or copy several copies and place in a room where they meet could make a positive difference in their lives. Many adults that I talk to have some very harsh attitudes toward the modern entry level worker, not being aware of how much the job situation and the world in general has changed over the last forty years. Hollywood and TV hasn't helped and the fact that 12 to 15 percent of the present work force isn't needed makes breaking into our new world in a way that provides dignity and self esteem is more difficult than ever. Read the book and see if it might be of help to someone you know. [more]
