would greatly appreciate all references on the economic, social,
psychological, as well as the more broadly political effects of the
war as it affected U.S. culture. Its a subject in which I thought
I could easily come up with sco

No. They'll keep doing dumb stuff, lunge for the center-right, and
marginalize themselves further
In an effort to better understand "market socialism", I just concluded
Alec Nove's "The Economics of Feasible Socialism Revisited". I

I keep thinking that one day the Dems will wake up, but every time I turn
on the news and hear them talking, the words coming out of their mouths
convince me otherwise. It's hard not to feel a sense of despair about

Doesn't anyone think that this time will give the Dems a chance to revitalize,

Environmental and health and safety issues would be rather important to this
aim.

Jim,
I just read your note and I didn't remember endorsing the
redefining progress project. However, as I was sitting here,
a little embarassed I remember signing something endorsing the
concept of not using growth in GDP to measure progress but rather
measuring progress through growth but also
