A start would be a serious press and an absence of money in political
campaigns to make dialogues possible.  Otherwise, we can only whisper
among ourselves.

Look, I published a book, The Confiscation of American Prosperity:
From Right Wing Extremism and Economic Ideology to the Next Great
Depression, which appeared just as the stock market peaked in October
2007.  It never made any impression.  Maybe that was a defect on my
part, but quite a few of us saw this coming.  None ever got a serious
hearing.

If we can't have a free press or a responable political system, we
better learn how to communicate better or shout louder.
