I think it's important to do more than skim past the obvious headline and talk about the heart of the article. The message I gather is this: The greatest power for the common person comes not from putting absolute trust in the individual or the 'market', in the state or some political celebrity figurehead, but in local groups from the ground up.

The governance structure of "boss/head guy/board makes the rules and the rest of us blindly obey" needs to be turned on its head. Individual action isn't enough but also we need to do away with the nihilism and defeatism that nothing we do matters. The biggest changes begin locally.
