I've just added a bunch of new stuff to the LBO web site (see URL below). * A new article (http://www.panix.com/~dhenwood/Jobless_future.html) - "How Jobless the Future?," a response to the thesis of a jobless future circulated by Stanley Aronowitz, among others. (Aronowitz responded angrily to this article without having read it; his letter, and LBO's response to his response, appears in the current issue, now on its way to subscribers.) Check out Norman Leavitt's very amusing diatribe on one of the Aronowitz links. * A description of my book Wall Street (http://www.panix.com/~dhenwood/Book_info.html) along with some extravagant praise from others (besides Verso's own copywriters) and a delightful picture of myself (http://www.panix.com/~dhenwood/DH_bio.html). * Updates to the pages on U.S. employment, unemployment, and earnings (all accessible from http://www.panix.com/~dhenwood/Stats_comments.html) over the long term - including January's figures, and a new chart on the earnings page showing the gap between productivity and pay. * Most of the older articles have been spiced up with new links, some informative, some mischievous. * The links page (http://www.panix.com/~dhenwood/LBO_links.html) has been roughly tripled in size. * The miracle of anti-aliasing has been sprinkled throughout. And while there, check out the recent additions, Gina Neff's article on Grameen and microcredit (http://www.panix.com/~dhenwood/Micro.html) and Josh Mason's on the costs of crime (http://www.panix.com/~dhenwood/Costs_of_crime.html).
