Reader comments about this quote:

Like the corrupt monetary system in which we are perpetually loaded with unpayable debt. The only solution is a return to honest money -- but too many of us are dependent upon the system, that to do so would result in a big crash instead of a perpetual needle in our arm leaving us with the bare minimum to survive. Time to face the music and pay the piper else we all go off the cliff ... -- E Archer, NYC
Archer you've hit on the great lie that everyone has chosen to ignore. And when it can no longer be ignored most will be poorly prepared. -- J Carlton, Calgary
"I would hope that a wise Latina woman, with the richness of her experiences, would more often than not reach a better conclusion than a white male who hasn't lived that life." -- S.Sotomayor, Washington,DC
Archer, said very well ! (-; Sotomayor, I like the implication ;-) -- Mike, Norwalk
