ok, so just imagine that there's this group of rich people that where to suddenly inject a whole lot of cash in to the anarchist movement for, lets say hypothetically speaking, a string of social centres arround the country. Now whilst such a thing i'm sure would be welcomed, might we perhaps loose sight of other not so positive affects of this- like the importance of local fundrasing for getting people involved and feeling part of the project?
Is sucking on the big cash cock neccessarily healthy for the anarchist movement
Hmmm... an interesting hypothetical this...
I mean obviously it would create problems like you mention... on the other hand surely it'd be too good an opportunity to miss?
I mean to stop certain individuals having too much power it might be worth setting up safeguards that say either the cash is a one-off injection into certain projects, which are then completely self-managed, or else the money is put into a fund which then pays out a regular amount each year, decided by some delegated + mandated council...
It could also create problems with rivalries/people fighting over the funds... which wouldn't be healthy...
