    Mike Lemmon made an excellent post on Personal Learning Networks, that led me to talk to him and Jeffery Whitlock about them. Jeffery led me to this book about declining social capital, and made a blog post about it.

      I feel like one of the reasons for this is because there is so much required of individuals.Whether it is our jobs or our education, we have to work constantly in order to survive. There is little or no leisure time until you have earned it. Would it be possible to live in a type of economic system that would allow each individual the ability to choose based on their own judgement of when to do work for others and when to do work for himself? That would be awesome!
