Ron Paul on Drugs

Mike Ludwig, Truthout: ''Rep. Ron Paul s outspoken opposition to the war on drugs and federal drug prohibition sets him far apart from his opponents in the Republican primaries and President Obama. Paul s frank libertarianism and his willingness to boldly step outside the Washington status quo has not translated to primary victories, but has earned him a legion of young followers of all political stripes who want to see a change in the Republican Party and the way government deals with drugs.''

Towards a Creditor State: One in Seven Americans Is Pursued by Debt Collectors

Matt Stoller, Naked Capitalism: ''One of the characteristics of the new social contract ushered in by both George W. Bush and Barack Obama is the increasing power of creditors to govern outright, from tax farming by banks to the use of credit checks to access employment opportunities. There are now thousands of people legally jailed because they aren t paying their bills, ie. debtor?s prisons have returned. Occasionally elites let it slip that this is not an accident, but is their goal.''

Un-Cheating Justice: Two Years Left to Prosecute Bush

David Swanson, War Is A Crime.org: ''Legal accountability can come after many years, as in the case of various Nazis, or of Chilean dictator Augusto Pinochet, or of the murderers of civil rights activists including Medgar Evers.... In between, for the bulk of the book, Holtzman, a former district attorney, lays out the prospects for a prosecution of Bush and others on charges of lying to Congress about the grounds for war, wiretapping Americans, and conspiring to torture."
