| "What I don't understand is how our politicians can be so incredibly stupid to accept this criminal economic theory that was bound to end in a crash, sooner, or later." Simple Ed, the Rich are not impoverished, they are enriched. Its only the non-rich that are devestated by the likes of th... |

| "The Jews hate the Arabs (who are Semites) as much as the Arabs hate the Jews (who are Semites). Yet they trace their lineage back to a common ancestor." Wow, two huge misconceptions here. 1) I think the Author confuses Arab with Muslim - Not all Arabs are Muslim and not all Muslims are Ar... |

Well, if we lived in a capitalist society this simply wouldn't be possible. Banking is to capitalism what anti-matter is to matter.
Our country has no capital, only debt. You cannot be capitalist without capital. |

| First - I speak for myself, not CAP. I am a CAP member and I screen email coming into the party "info" address, but that is the extent of my capacity in the party. I have no authority or right to speak on behalf of the party itself, just for myself. In my first response, I hadn't read Cath... |

| I wasn't part of this dust-up, mostly because I really like both Catherine and Connie. All I can tell you is that a good read through Robert's Rules and adhering to the procedures therin would have gone a long way to avoiding this situation. I'm sad to see Catherine go, I thought she had a lot of dr... |

| Oh come on, how can you criticise paying $37 billion a year in interest to banks when we get to use their credit as our money? If not for banks creating credit, we'd have to do something like have the government print interest free money that would serve only as the economy's lubricant. Of course, t... |
