It's rather odd that politicians have borrowed Social security funds for years to balance the budget, but when Social Security _might_ need an infusion of cash a couple of decades from now, they say its going broke. They are playing smoke and mirrors with your retirement. Besides, repeal the tax cuts for the wealthy and there'll be plenty of cash. There is NO need for Social security benefit cuts. |

We Are All Protectionists Now |

In a typical newspaper article or op-ed, politicians or union leaders who criticize agreements such as NAFTA or the WTO are described as "protectionist" or against "free trade." Those who support such commercial agreements are called "free-traders."
But this is completely inaccurate. The proponents of "free trade" are only in favor of international competition that drives down the wages of ordinary workers. They do not support similar measures to reduce the salaries of doctors, for example. Quite the opposite, in fact: current law makes it difficult for foreign professionals to practice in the United States, and the government has limited the number of foreign residents in U.S. medical schools so as not to depress doctors' salaries. |

For four years, while insisting that Nader and the Greens had cost it the election, the Democrats did not do one thing to insure that what they claimed was true didn't happen again. In fact, they went out of their way to insure that American progressives would feel as unwelcome in 2004 as they did in 2000. |
