Since Gene Coyle accuses Bob Hass of being a politcal coward or opportunist,
he now has the responsibility to give the basis for such a charge. Maybe
there a good juicy story here or just a slimeball out to settle old or imaged

Hi
I'm producing an English version of Clara Zetkin's 'History of the
German Women's Class Movement'. I want to check copyright, previous
editions, etc. Foner and others refer to this work with an English title but

Peter (Burns), why don't you post a copy of your critique of
global Thatcherism to the PKT list also? The place is infested by
Hayekians and Austrians. What really matters is what Hayekism and

I thought I subscribed to this list a couple of weeks ago and even got a

since. Am I doing something wrong? Please help.
I agree with the idea of forcing a cut in executive salaries, but divesting
ownership of corps. is not the way to do it. It is very true that pension
funds own an enourmous amount of stock. However, divesting certain corps.
