I wrote "Don't Let The System Win" in 1994.
It was later recorded on a CD "FACTS ABOUT GATS" for ATTAC Vorarlberg (2004) and one year later on a sampler "ART IN RESISTANCE -- RESISTANCE IN ART".
Last year I made a new arrangement for Rhythm ATTAC Bodensee.
The banners you see in the video were made for a protest rally 23 -- 27 August 2011 at the 4th meeting of the "Winners of the Prize for Economic Sciences of the Sverige Riksbank in Memory of Alfred Nobel", "Economic-Nobel Prize", in the town of Lindau / Lake of Constance (Germany).
The "Economic Nobel Prize Winners" attending were George Akerlof,
Robert Aumann, Peter Diamond, Eric S. Maskin, Daniel McFadden,
Sir James Mirrlees, Dale Mortensen, Robert Mundell, Roger B. Myerson,
John Nash Jr. Edmund Phelps, Christopher Pissarides, Edward Prescott,
Myron Scholes, Reinhard Selten, William Sharpe, and Joseph Stiglitz.

I don't like evolutionary theories, so if any of you guys want to protest some meeting of biologists I'm all for it. I think we need to define boundaries within which scientific research is permitted, and do our utmost to keep scientists from working on something else. You guys should start by drafting up a list of research areas and theories in economics that are socially acceptable. We should then decide on a democratic basis if there are any other thoughts that we don't want to be pursued.
