While you are at it, get "Stupid White Men" too, which is a great update on the "Fascist Patriarchy" currently in Washington, and how they support companies that exploit people for their labour, and could care-a-less about the average, middle or lower-middle class. Bush wants to turn every company in America into Enron, and he MUST be stopped. So, most can kiss their 401(k) goodbye; kiss the house (if you are lucky to own one) goodbye; kiss sending kids to college goodbye; don't even THINK about getting proper health care...etc..etc.

> JayJay, I saw Michael Moore's interview on 60 Minutes a couple of weeks ago. What I find more insidious than the political shenanigans is the suppression of alternative opinions by publishers and the media in general. It was interesting that Moore mentioned that publishers didn't want to print "Stupid White Men" because it was "in a post 9-11 time and it would be inappropriate". Later a librarian got together with other librarians and hassled the publisher about it. AFter it was printed it went to #1 and made the publisher a bunch of money. Hmmm.
