"I believe in adequate defense at the coastline and nothing else. If a nation comes
over here to fight, then we'll fight. The trouble with America is that when the
dollar only earns 6 percent over here, then it gets restless and goes overseas
to get 100 percent. Then the flag follows the dollar and the soldiers follow the
flag." - Smedley Darlington Butler

Looking Glass Economics
By Kevin Drum
Republicans - and, unfortunately, some Democrats too - are pushing for an economic
austerity plan that will keep unemployment high and the job market loose. The result
is downward pressure on wages, and that downward pressure keeps middle-class incomes
stagnant and corporate profits high.

Battle Lines Clear in America's Hidden Class War
