This week's recommended reading (10/26/16)

Don't Think It's Over When Trump Loses -- An economist sounds a cautionary note. Trump is the beginning, not the end.

Bill Black on "Debt Derangement Syndrome" (Pete Peterson) -- further debunking Fiscal Responsibility[tm]

Michael Hudson's interview explaining how debt peonage is the destination for current debt deflation. Hudson was Kucinich's economics advisor

The Democrats showed the Republicans how to do it. A reminder that no one in the major party duopoly has clean hands. Not mentioned here is the *fact* that LBJ, in stealing his senate seat, prefigured every trick Karl Rove used and then some. (See Robert Caro's Means of Ascent ... part of his multi-volume LBJ biography)

For more in this vein, Thomas Frank's Listen Liberal:  Or, What Ever Happened to the Party of the People?
