Just finished reading this article, posted in the Economy forum, and like others I recommend it x 1000!

It's long but well worth the time and will give you information you need to both know and discuss our current economic state.

Really - you'll understand a LOT more after this article.


The Worsening Debt Crisis: Who Got Us into This Mess and What are the Real Political Options?
An Interview with Economist Michael Hudson
By MIKE WHITNEY
September 8, 2008

"...characterize Greenspan's part in the crisis? Hudson: He was its cheerleader"

"Hudson: If the incoming Democratic administration proves to be more of the same, pressure will indeed arise to create a new party. More often economic reform has come from the top, but I don’t see it from the Republicans, given their corruption. Within the Democratic Party the question is whether the Wall Street Democratic Leadership Committee (who gave us Gore and Lieberman after the Clintons) will continue to impose its stranglehold."
