Peter Joseph courageously embodies the humanistic / scientific enlightenment of the 21 st century. He has grasped the very inner structrual contradictions of the CAPITALIST/MONETARY system and his revolutionary call for a WORLD OF COOPERATION FOR OUR COMMON NEEDS AND WELL BEING should be the CONSTITUTION OF NEW HUMANI CIVIILISATION. My deepest respect to my brother P.Joseph. in Zetgeist for Venus Project, Time to make history democratically,consciously and globally

CIA put Saddam Insane into power, exactly to overthrow a self-government of/by/for the Iraqi people. Why would anyone expect anything different, just because an invasion & occupation threw out the old dictator?

@snolge I believe in regulation, I just don't think an agency like the state should do it. Especially a state as centralized as that of the United States. And of course, the best regulation is to privatize parts of the sea. I don't know if you understand what I'm talking about but it's not as nuts as you might think.

@truevoice08 Hey i'm as anti-government as they come. They support those kinds of policies. Just because they've been backed into a corner by public opinion does'nt change the fact that they've destroyed the working class in your country(i'm assuming your American,i'm irish) by completely deregulating the corporations and letting them do what they like.

[truevoice08]

@snolge Vacuous? Oh really? What about the solution of government? Hey, let's just create a new government bureaucracy on top of the EPA and the MMS to hyperregulate the oil drillers! Now that's a vacuous solution!

[snolge]

@truevoice08 Free markets and Capitalism are the most vacuous types of economic policies there is

She's right on the facts but has a socialist interpretation. Iraqis did not want privatization of oil fields because they did not want multinational corporations to control their oil and having a US government protected monopoly. Nationalism is better than that for the reason that domestic tyranny is better than foreign tyranny. There was definitely nothing free market about it.

[truevoice08]

She's brilliant on foreign policy. Too bad she doesn't know economics as she's a socialist.
