The Debt Resistor’s Operations Manual

An offshoot of the Occupy movement, Strike Debt is helping defaulters retire debt for pennies on the dollar. They’re also helping the 99% understand that the design of our financial system is built to keep masses of workers indentured to creditors. In Strike Debt’s easy-to-understand book, “The Debt Resistor’s Operations Manual,” the entire concept of who owes whom earns an overdue examination, particularly in the groundbreaking chapters on Student, Medical, and Climate Debt. Even for solid citizens like us, who dutifully pay off mortgages and manage finances prudently, the DROM is a welcome reconsideration of “moral obligations.” When the revolution arrives, this enlightening book will be one of the counter-culture touchstones.
