Act Out! Episode 14 - Occupy Venice, here are The Rules now break them & France with a mic drop
Wed, 6/3/2015 - by Eleanor Goldfield
This article originally appeared on Occupy.com

This week, we test our math skills in the name of systemic dumbshitedness. Then Occupy Venice shows us how to fight the power while helping the powerless. Martin Kirk, founder and head strategist at /The Rules talks about breaking them, shifting paradigms and planned poverty. We ask the Internet, what are we? Oligarchy, plutocracy, oligarch-racy? And finally, France schools us on architectural design and food, but not in the ways you’d expect.
