 From the Free
Market to the Justice System: Let us think together about it!- Friday, May 2, 2003
by: Mario deSantis
What you will find in this story is the bottom line. Mr. deSantis has been digging
and the text of his story is how he feels after finding what he did but to understand
this conclusion you are going to have to look at some of the references as the ABC
story on the Whitehouse and its "emphasis" is truly a shocker.

 Solving the problems he created- Friday, May 2, 2003
by: Mike Reilly
Paul Martin has been coy about what he stands for and only lately has been making
pronouncements but his over confidence or arrogance is hard to fathom because this
man is most likely going to be the Prime Minister in a few months and as Mike Reilly
points out Paul Martin's solutions involve a lot of fast footwork and the understanding
of Canada one might expect of someone in kindergarten.

Our world is vulnerable and the jokers should be telling jokes and serious folks

 American Crony
Capitalism: The snowballing of privatization, less taxes and more wars- Monday, April 28, 2003
by: Mario deSantis
American economic operations are in the Texas Enron pattern. Spend money they don't
have, cover it with wars and cut taxes to fatten up the wealthy. The whole thing
is just delayed failure in progress.

 Mobylette- Sunday, April 27, 2003
by: Timothy W. Shire
With less than 50cc. of engine displacement and limited in speed this vehicle is
classed as a bicycle and as such does not require a special drivers license. Surprising
that the moped is not more popular in North America but in Europe they are and have
been extremely popular for decades.

 The IMF and World Bank:Poverty Reduction
and Growth? Or the Same Old Formula?- Saturday, April 26, 2003
by: Mark Weisbrot
The United States and its enforced economic policies in South and Central America
have reduced growth from 75% to 7% and the standard of living is actual close to
declining everywhere American policies prevail. This means the United States and
its "regime change" war in Iraq are enormously unpopular.
