There's little question that the Obama Administration has tacked hard to the right on international economic policy since coming in to office. Its efforts to ram $100 billion for the International Monetary Fund through Congress via the war supplemental without reform language that would stop the IMF from making recessions worse through demands for budget cuts - as the IMF is now doing in Latvia - are just the most recent example.
But if the Wall Street boys thought they were just going to run the table on international economic policy in this administration, they had another think coming. http://www.huffingtonpost.com/robert-naiman/labor-house-dems-stall-pa_b_208212.html http://www.dailykos.com/story/2009/5/27/134424/796 -- Robert Naiman Just Foreign Policy www.justforeignpolicy.org [email protected] _______________________________________________ pen-l mailing list [email protected] https://lists.csuchico.edu/mailman/listinfo/pen-l
