In the latest migration to a new virtual private server, some of the links to images in the earliest posts to this blog were broken. If you encounter one of these broken links, please let me know. I have backups and can restore the images.
There’s only one person who agrees with me on everything, and, as I’m not running for office, that person is not on the ballot.

Rational message, wrong messenger. He went the entire time without mentioning the Republican Party even though Bain Capital was under discussion. Paul Krugman does it better, reaches more people, and states it more simply as a pure demand problem. Give people money to spend and demand increases and then jobs. Which is what Hanauer says but not as directly so I’m guessing he’s still afraid of losing entire club membership privileges. Bet the book is similar. “End this Depression Now!” or “Garden of Democracy”, which has a better title. Rhetorical, obviously.
