There is no one on this planet that can articulate better than Chomsky. "The consequences are dire", states Chomsky. Yes. So dire that we have no choice but to get ready for the end. Nothing can save us now. &nbs...

Oh, my goodness! The free market is a terrible thing and cannot be tolerated any longer. How can anyone support this? It is a disease similar to Nationalism/Patriotism that eventually, always, becomes vicious racism, if allowed t...

Aristotle defined the central question of politics as, "How shall we order our lives together?" Professor Chomsky is right about the effect of externalities. But I think he's too hard on the "free-market/invisible hand" theorists, who maintain th...

I thought that the Southern Iraqis (Shia) were originally told that the US would support them in the ouster of Saddam, only to be later let down by a non compliant US. I thought the fear was another Shia leadership in the region. &nb...

I like that natural language being used in this essay. The topics are likely to be present in conversation today. The style is engaging for me with the matter-of-fact, tangible anecdotes: "I think the sentence was $5,000 ... enough to pa...

Great article. In addition, to the debate Mayr wrote a book called 'What Evolution Is" that basically concluded that even if there is life out there the chance that we will find them or they us is slim. So it is probably bett...

This is a wonderful article, so illuminating, that it should make us really reflect a lot much more on our relationship with the environment if we desire to prevent our extinction that could happen very soon if we do not take the necessary steps...

Interesting to hear Assange talking about the merger of State and Private power. In fact the original definition of Fascism was - "a system of government that exercises a dictatorship of the extreme right, typically...

My only concern here is the continued reliance on the amorphous term neoliberalism to describe the crisis. It suggests a modified, less liberal, social democratic capitalism is far more viable but I see little proof of that. I think it is time to...

I tried to run a US Senate campaign without money and failed. I am serious. I want to figure out a way to rid the country of both parties and get on with solving problems, not just have some feel good protests and discussions. I think ...

It's a well written article and really uncovers the brutalities and unjust behaviour of those groups which are created to serve elites in any given society. Terrific reading : "Morality is not grounded in men, which defines their behavior...

Lester I don't agree with George Monbiot's nuclear stance but I will still, happily, read any article that he writes because he is a very good journalist. This article is about the freedom of the individual not nuclear power. But then aga...

Somebody needs to come out of hiding. There was another comment that has now been purged along with a response to it. More shame.

Joe - All I was suggesting is that we might engage in a balanced assessment of the different approaches to organising. No doubt both approaches with have their pro’s and con’s and I think it would be interesting to clarify these...
