"An industrial capitalist society that does not recognize ecological limits but only perpetual economic expansion and has the profit motive as driver, will eventually consume and destroy itself."
"But we will all be taken down with it."

Went to the EJC clinic tonight. Second case wasn't very much fun (we can't help you with the lawsuit because we only do employment law, even if you are a self-employed cabbie and they're saying that the accident happened while you were driving), but the first was great. Well, great fun for me, not such a nice situation for the person involved. She works in retail and her coworker was at first very nice but then started to call her all the time and ask her out on dates. She stopped talking to him, so he started kicking her as she walked by and leaving trash at her register. Then he actually attacked her, leaving bruises. She called the cops and they took pictures. Now she wants to sue.And by gum we can help her! We'll find her a lawyer who will take her on contingency and off she goes.
Actually, it was kind of inspiring. Maybe I'd like to do that some day. Just hang out the shingle and take little employment cases like that. Employers do so much bad stuff, I should be able to find enough plaintiffs to put bread on the table. Work for the government or a small employment firm for a while, then go on my own. Hey, if Zak did it, why can't I?
