"Pulling this floor out from under American workers would almost certainly cause wages to fall precipitously for most working-class people. A cynic might wonder whether this isn’t, after all, the real goal of conservative deficit hawks ...

I can't cite any data, but my gut tells me that the same thing happened to the word "feminism" as happened to "socialism," "communism," "anarchism," and "liberalism."  It's been so con...

It has probably not escaped your watchful eyes, but Pinker approvingly quoted or mentioned many champions of peace while carefully refraining from mentioning their very strong opposition to his pro-capitalist, pro-neoliberal, lib...

It's ironic. The power elite are increasingly transnational in their outlook and identities. And yet, as we move deeper into feudalism here in the US, the more important it becomes to put out a nationalist message to the underclasses. Because ...

We here in the U.S. are tragically and dangerously ignorant and disrespectful of anything that takes place outside our borders.  Anyone who chooses to tread or trade on this ignorance  can have relatively easy time of it because most of ...
