  • It's Time To Let Them Receive Their Just Rewards

    Corporate Welfare must end. It is time for the supporters of unbridled and unregulated free markets to suffer the consequences of their actions. Let them all fall. And let anyone who wishes to support them do so with their own money. Let them be crushed under the weight of corporate incompetence and greed. We have been told, time and again, ...

  • macroeconomics for energy policy

    petroleum and natural gas ought not be traded as a commodity. petro and natural gas should be traded more like electricity -- highly regulated -- by government agencies. Large electrical energy producers were created by way of federal projects. Petro and natural gas could be nationalized, especially for domestic production. The land and sea based ...

As you so aptly point out, McCain will make the allegations whether the information is there or not -- just another last-ditch attempt to smear Obama. If McCain has proof on ANY of the allegations and innuendos ...

  • Yes, because...

    Declaring donors means a great deal. For instance, if, say, Russia desired to endure we Americans got a President that would serve Russia's agendas and the Presidential candidate was amenable, a failure to disclose and a high count of small donors using anonymous, disposable visa cards could easily fund such an endeavor.

  • Accountability

    I know McCain thinks that government programs that aren't working can be fixed by calling for ''accountability''. How exactly does he plan to implement this accountability? Does he think that a phone call will suffice? Does he realize that the review of the workings of one of these programs will cost money (people don't work for free, my ...
