DESCRIPTION:Dialectical Consumerism: the brutal devotion to treating land values as 
 private assets.\n\nCome along on a FREE walking tour exploring the mishaps 
 resulting from treating the occupation of Planet Earth as an opportunity 
 for private aggrandizement. You're likely so bored by the gassing of 
 well-intentioned, self-described environmentalists that you wouldn't bother 
 to visit a Green Economy/Climate Change Expo even if it offered an 
 eco-tourist gratis vacation to the Amazonian "lungs of the planet" as a 
 premium . . . or any of 100 other cool bags, balloons, and other 
 earth-imaging baubles.\n\nBut this morning tour is no lugubrious mope over 
 dark days done and to come; it's a sharp-eyed paean to social movements 
 that have attempted to reshape the social relationship to land, from the 
 Mormon hegira departing the US for sleepy-town San Francisco in 1846 to the 
 Black Panthers' fumbling attempt to discover a new-age 40 acres and a mule 
 in the 60s to San Francisco today desperate to fill a wasteland downtown. 
 And after a celebration of those mighty yearnings, the tour introduces the 
 San Frannie-born ultimate Earth Day-embracing 19th century public policy 
 proposal to socialize the entirety of market-determined land 
 values.\n\n"This walk is better than a pound of weed or a night of 
 bar-staggering."  --Indolent Annie Jones\n
