This is great and kind of funny because I have been joking for a long time with friends that we need a cross between Greenpeace and the Teamsters Union right here in Coos County. What these groups are acknowledging is that single focus groups can bring their issues together toward a broader concept, even one as drastic as re-envisioning how the economy works.
