Loved sitting down with you two this morning for two hours to hear there are people in Canada who are on to the truth of the U.S. It's what it has always been--an authoritarian, racist, genocidal, slave state that relegates its majority (women and girls) to servant class.

Cheers, Thornburg - thank you so much for that - always truly great to see more signs of genuine full hearted rebels. I swear the greatest trick of the propagandists is to make those of principle feel we are alone and isolated in a sea of maniacs - instead of the steady and solid majority (only currently addled and thus falsely split)).

So true! I'm reading a great book by Sam Pizzigati: Greed and Good: Understanding and Overcoming the Inequality that Limits Our Lives. He did the work--researched and compiled a very readable (and lengthy) tome of how in the hell corporate America destroyed the Middle Class, and ensconced the ruling elite, which then spread like cancer worldwide. He also offers solutions. Mosquito Revolution envisions Mosquito rebels in Canada, the U.K., and Australia becoming a consortium with the U.S. to overthrow and defeat these **ckers.

Doctrow again - usually an extremely restrained writer - not today.

I can't say I think this a high-odds outcome (much opposition, on top of built-in inescapable difficulty involved), but I think Gilbert Doctrow articulates some backhanded hope, rather well, in this recent interview (China needed a strongman like Nixon, to normalize relations - perhaps Iran normalization needs a team that look completely hawkish on Isreal). Best case possible - but considering the 'state of the art' (cliff-bound and accellerating) still counts as hope. (and Nixon created the EPA too, remember - while it was Clinton who locked up crack kids and killed welfare - this bakhanded wins thing is a real pattern in political affairs). https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OI2z7Ndh1rs
