Above page has an excellent video.

Brad, you commented on a diary of mine last fall at the orange place re the economic crash. I was just looking at those comments and guessed you might well like the above video. At 1:30 a.m. my time, I think your taking a peek at it would serve better than anything I could say just now.

Please have a look.

Alright this time when I tried it I got the same result as this afternoon. I check a radial and then press the vote button. After pressing the vote button there’s nothing to signify that it was been pressed. No outline, no color change, no depress image frame, no shadow, etc. When I click on it again to be sure that I’ve done it correctly I get a pop-up that says:

Your last request is still being processed. Please wait a while …

The same pop-up appears if I choose “View Results” after that. But I can still change the marked radial. Weird. Well that’s enough bug testing for tonight I suppose.

Okay. It didn’t work for you just now because I originally had it set to expire after just a couple of days. I extended the time limit on this question and re-opened the poll thereby. New expiration time is shortly after 9AM Central on the 23rd.

Ah, I had to click on “vote” first. See, most other polls I take simply start with the radials, and then put vote at the bottom to submit data. Because it had no radials and a vote option, it looked like it wasn’t working.

But as my vote still hasn’t registered, there may still be something wrong with the poll.

You should change the button to say, “click to begin poll” or something like that.

I’m mostly worried about the poll not working for you folks. Did you click on “vote” first?

Also, since when (to paraphrase Carson) did petit bourgeoisie become a swear word amongst us???

The mortgage crisis, if only because a larger point about statism can be made through it.

I actually agree with Niccolo on this. People are already skeptical & pissed off, they’re open to new ideas*. The degree of political involvement behind the current messes in housing & finance would shock most people, point it out in a way they can internalize and the status quo discredits itself.

(* - new to them I mean.)

I would like to see Market Anarchists everywhere concentrate on the mortgage crisis actually. I think it could be a key issue to push through in recruitment.

Poll doesn’t work for me, but I’m not sure what the link bait is. To make the current votes even I’ll pick the mortgage crisis.
