The cause is a self-destruction wrought by a political elite that has wrapped itself in fantastical self-delusion about the superiority of its economic system, the coming ascendancy of the single currency over the dollar
Since this was written, how far has the dollar fallen against the Euro?

Kitchen shears are pretty sturdy, and an electric knife is basically the same mechanism as an electric trimmer, or at least we have one that looks about the same.

(From below - this is interesting)
the difference between USAmerica and Germany in particular is that we have a "Soziale Marktwirtschaft" a social market.
Which basically means that althought Goverment has no implicit right to regulate the markets, it can set up binding rules if these restriction help the greater good.
By ruling that chimneys must be build with filtersystems to keep out heavy toxins of the air, the rules help the greater god. Not prevent business.
Also Tax generated for social services are not seen as hand outs. They are a right to everyone living in Germany. One pays tax not to provide had outs to others, but to receive "welfare" when unemployed, sick or otherwise unable to provide for their "own welfare".
these rules are somewhat changing, as the "free" (i call it "subsidized") maket model of the USAmerican Businesses are more and more championed.
But there is still a sense of utter destruction and poverty left in my country, me born in 68, i lived in an area where the last bombed out buildings were destroyed in the 70s. My mum - one of nine - born in 42 remembers collecting cigarette butts, to collect the tobacco for grandma's smoke. Going to harvest potatos and being payed with a bag of potatos
The missing old man in many familys. A generation without grandfathers.
So war/endless war/totaler krieg which always goes with social misery, been there, done that, still paying "die blutschuld" - the blood dept.
I never quite understood the USAmerican reasoning in matters of "solial wellfare" and "free market". But by following the last years of mayhem, blood, gore and sadistic pleasures, I have come to accept the fact that black is white and day is night.
USAmericans can not, will not, for some reason admit that they fucked up badly the greater good of their country and their people and the planet we all depend on.
history repeating itself, because we have learned nothing.

Spc. Jeremy Hall and the Military Religious Freedom Foundation filed a lawsuit against Maj. Paul Welborne and Defense Secretary Robert Gates in U.S. District Court in Kansas City, Kansas, this past week. It alleges that Welborne threatened to pursue military charges against Hall and to block his reenlistment because he was trying to hold a meeting of atheists and non-Christians in Iraq.
The suit also alleges that Gates permits a military culture in which officers are encouraged to pressure soldiers to adopt and espouse fundamentalist Christian beliefs

And that's a moral decision you will have to make. We're all moral actors and have to decide just how much we can do if we want to end the war
My moral act was to not be involved in military related work though even some respected persons here, gave me job links for such.
I'm currently working as a cashier, in a busy store, as much less wages than I could get if I was to work say at one of the companies who contract at Ft. Huachuca.
My moral die has already been thrown.
I won't do anything to damage my employment I'm getting at a medical equipment/instrument maker.
I am aware, that some of those devices may be used in the war, but the line I'm drawing is the difference between devices used in some way to kill innocent people, and devices used to save lives. The later is what I wish to be involved in.

BUSH has said he never traveled till he was handed the White House.
Michael Moore mentioned, I believe, in "Dude, Where's My Country?" that a lot of Americans brag that they don't own a passport.

Among the myriad of protests at Columbia in 1968 was one against research into dialyzing membranes, funded by the government and alleged to have been for the biological warfare program. Julian Miller, a wonderful, and liberal, professor of chemistry, pointed out, in a rare broadside from a source other than SDS, that the principal likely use of the research was to build artificial kidneys.

Some of these idiot dems ought to read that Chait thing to which Trifecta pointed.
American politics has been transformed, yet in this change lies the deeper mystery. The public has not clamored for it. While it is true that, starting around the late 1960s, polls showed a growing backlash against the welfare state, that backlash petered out during the 1980s and actually began to reverse itself a few years later. Which is to say, the public has actually grown less receptive to conservatism in general, let alone the particular upper-class variety practiced by today's GOP.
How do I know this? Here's one example. The National Election Survey has been asking voters for many years whether they would prefer a larger government with more services or a smaller government with fewer services. In 1982, the first year of the poll, 32 percent favored smaller government, and 24 percent preferred larger government (with the remainder right in the middle or expressing no opinion). By 2004, it had completely flipped, with 43 percent preferring bigger government and just 20 percent wanting a smaller one. Other polls have showed that the public has turned away from its antigovernment mood of the 1970s and favored a more active government and more progressive taxes. The public has been moving steadily left for twenty years, while Washington has lurched rapidly in the opposite direction.

An almost theological opposition to taxation quickly took hold within the GOP, opening up the opportunity for business lobbyists to hijack the party's agenda. And so they did, as described in chapter 2. Far from being ideological fanatics, these were the most coolly calculating men. Their distinguishing quality was cynicism. Some of them were flamboyant crooks, like the gangster wannabe Jack Abramoff. But most were crooks of a more respectable variety- the kind with seven-figure salaries and offices at prestigious law firms. All of them understood that the destruction of the old Republican ethos of restraint opened up the public coffers to them, and they have availed themselves and their clients of a massive looting of the Treasury.

I've just finished marinating 10 pounds of pork shoulder for on of my favoritest things: Chinese BBQ pork.
Marinade consists of:
20 med. cloves garlic, chopped, 1/2 lb. ginger, chopped, 1/4C each peppercorns, coriander, star anise, sichaun peppercorn (aka prickly ash berries), dried cayenne pods, 2 tbsp each allspice berries, cinnamon, 1/4C salt, 1/2C sugar. suspend all this in ~ 3 cups sake + 1.5 cups gin (Tanqueray, in this case), 1 cup bloack soy sauce, and 2/3 cups hoisin sauce.
Dissect bones from and slice 1/2" thick 2 pork shoulder butt roasts and immerse in marinade at least 24 hours.
Next day, take 1 rack out of your oven and put other in the highest slot. Unbend a bunch of stout paperclips. Place a large cookie sheet with 3C water in bottom of oven. Thread paperclip hooks through meat slices and hang from oven rack. Preheat to 375 degrees. Bake thus ~45 minutes. Slice and serve with rice and some kind of stir-fried vegetable (I prefer pea sprouts), as well as marinated napa cabbage.

But there are many in Jena who say the tale of the "Jena Six" - the black teenagers who were charged with attempted murder and conspiracy for attacking a white classmate at Jena High School last December - is not as simple as all that.
Black and white, they say that in its repeated retelling - enhanced by omissions and alterations of fact - the story has taken on a life of its own. It has transformed a school-yard stomping into an international cause celebre, and those accused of participating in it into what one major Southern daily came to describe as "latter-day Scottsboro Boys."

It was widely reported that Bell, now 17, was an honor student with no prior criminal record. Although he had a high grade-point average, he was, in fact, on probation for at least two counts of battery and a count of criminal damage to property. In any event, his conviction was overturned because an appeals court ruled he should not have been tried as an adult.

There is, however, a more nuanced rendition of events -

Annie, you're being glib because you're trying to reduce the crimes to something that is tolerable. Just like Hitler observed that regime apologists can do in Mein Kampf (Chapter XV, The Right To Emergency Defense).
If you can make the travails seem less evil, you can convince people to endure them and not resist. So you keep doing your assigned part, you apologist, Satanic bitch whore, and minimize what is happening in our once-fair land. Fuck our ideals, fuck our rights, so long as we aren't living in cardboard boxes right now. And when we end up there, well, we can always say it's not so bad as Nazi Germany.

Most people are fine with things, so they don't like Bush, but they'll get a new guy next election and things go on.
But you all are in a little corner by yourselves, kept tucked away from everyone else because you don't know how to change things, not really.
I mean, what have any of you changed?
Nothing. Protest all you want, it changes nothing. Yell all you want, cuzz and froth at the mnouths, it only strengthens your "enemy's" position. I put " on "enemy" cuz it's only in your mind that half of America is at war with the other half.

There was a local Miami band in the '80s called the Ex-Conz.
They had a single out called "She's My Hosebag," and the B-side was called "Do Dead People Tan?" I wish I still had that ...

Marching is pointless. The pre-war marches were HUGE. They did nothing. The numbers you get these days are a joke.
annieangel | 09.22.07 - 9:25 pm | #
You're the joke. Your celebration of the death of American democracy, your willfull ignoring of the very real dangers to the American way of life under the current traitorous administration, your glib dismissal of the rapidly-growing income disparity and your willingness ot write off the mainstream media's willing fellatio of bushco mark you as intellectually lazy, morally bankrupt and entirely bereft of patriotism. Obviously, human life means little to you or you would not so casually ignore the thousands of violently dead in the Middle East, including Americans kidnapped and enslaved by George Bush and his partners in treason. You are one of the remaining few whose low moral character enables them to defend the world's biggest terrorist while accusing Clinton of imaginary crimes. You are anti-American, and don't deserve your citizenship. Perhaps you may lose it, if things don't go your way. That would be fitting.

FBI Probes Anti-Jena 6 Web Page
NEW ORLEANS (AP) - The FBI is reviewing a white supremacist Web site that purports to list the addresses of five of the six black teenagers accused of beating a white student in Jena and "essentially called for their lynching," an agency spokeswoman said Saturday.

Yes, marching is the only thing we can possibly do. And, of course, 2007 is so much like 2002/2003, what with the GOP still owning all the branches of govern...oh, wait.
Annie's Cointelpro. A bot designed to sow mistrust, depression and apathy.
Dog knows she wouldn't want us to actually continue to march and escalate our actions. Can you imagine if everybody actually shut down the economy or occupied the halls of power? Can you imagine if people refused to cooperate with the regime?
That would be just awful.

Hey all, if you don't liek what is happening in America, work to change it. If you're really working for change, it will come. But it's been 8 years of a man you claim is a criminal, the people you claim represent you aren't doing that and nothing is changing.
Maybe less telling me to fuck myself and more reflection on those simple facts would help you to realise you need to change what you are doing if you actually want things to change.
Otherwise, nothing will happen u til after the next election, and it will be done by electing a new President, not by letting the world know that America was strong enough to rid ourselves of a President we believe to be a criminal.
If most of Americans believed that, it would have been done.
Or, everyone has been played and kept busy with the polarisation of American agaisnt American while those in power get richer and richer and those in Iraq die.

I really don't know why you're so angry with me, Todd. I'm sorry if somehow I've offended you. I am not trying to belittle your personal contribution to working for change. I actually applaud it. But on a large scale, your "leaders" for want of a better word aren't being heard. THe mainsteam isn't hearing it.
If you don't go online and read certain sites, you won't see your side.
That is just the truth. THe protest march got tons of leftwing web play, but barely anyone mainstream even noticed.
You don't have the numbers. Therefore, you need to find out how to get your message to the masses in a way that they will listen to.

Chlorine imports have been dramatically curtailed in the wake of insurgent bombs that used chlorine. Dr. Naeema al-Gasseer, the WHO’s representative in Iraq, said some 100,000 tons of chlorine were being held up at Iraq’s border with Jordan because of fears the chemical could be used in explosives, leaving Baghdad with only a week’s supply.
Cholera “is a gastrointestinal disease that is typically spread by drinking contaminated water and can, in extreme cases, can lead to fatal dehydration.” Cholera is fairly simple to manage under ordinary circumstances, but the precarious security situation in the country prevents medical teams from reaching the ill, and the mass displacement of the population into unsanitary conditions makes control and treatment difficult.

When I turned on my car today the radio had some wingnut on, who was arguing with a caller about the weak dollar.
The wingnut claimed that the fact the dollar is so weak next to the Euro is actually good for us, since it helps us in trading and creating jobs and creating a strong economy, while the strong Euro is under assault and its bad for trade and it is making their economy "weaker by the day".
Exact words.
