[Dialogue] Shock Doctrine

[Herman Greene]

I read The Schock Doctrine recently and also highly recommend it. It tells
the saga of Friedmanism/neoliberalism. The present Wall Street meltdown may
spell the end of Friedmanism/neoliberalism as the dominant economic theory.

No Bail-Out for Wall Street! 
Burn Baby, Burn!
Bush and Wall Street are corrupt and caused this problem to begin with!
All of his advisers worked for these same failed Institutions.
They're just trying to line their pockets and cover their tracks.
This is Corporate Blackmail. 
FREEZE Foreclosures and 
Save the People loosing their Homes instead of these Crooks.
This is another example of 
BUSH'S crisis Management Technique: 
Create a Crisis and then rob the American people Blind.
He is a Corporate Abomination.
Washington is 90% privatized.
The White House is an empty shell.
Please, STOP BUSH!
He is a Lying, Spying, Treasonous and Torturous Sack of SH-T.
He has stolen 7,000 Billion DOLLARS already and what do we have to s how for
it?
The Bill and a pile of our children's Broken and Dead bodies.
Enough is enough!

Payback is a bitch.
No more Corporate Nanny State.
No more Corporate Welfare!
Instead, we should provide our children with Health Care and pass a
Renewable Energy Package that could provide clean Green Energy to this
Country forever!
Helping to free ourselves from The Grip of Foreign Oil and kick the dirty
Fossil Fuel Habit, 
While creating millions of new Jobs!
The Green Revolution!
Self reliance, self sufficiency, conservation and higher efficiency, is the
key.
Put Main Street First!
STOP the WAR and Harvest 
The PEACE Dividend!
Bring the Militia Home! 

Peace, Harmony, Prosperity, Cooperation, Helpfulness, True Compassion,
Patience and Brotherly/Sisterly Love.
We can do it if we try!
We are already suffering the consequences of Bush's bad decisions.
Please help, 
Stop BUSH now!
