From The Thom Hartmann Reader:
"Right through the worst of the Bush years and into the present, Thom Hartmann has been one of the very few voices constantly willing to tell the truth. Rank him up there with Jon Stewart, Bill Moyers, and Paul Krugman for having the sheer persistent courage of his convictions."
From Unequal Protection, 2nd Edition:
"Beneath the success and rise of American enterprise is an untold history that is antithetical to every value Americans hold dear. This is a seminal work, a godsend really, a clear message to every citizen about the need to reform our country, laws, and companies."
From Screwed:
"Once again, Thom Hartmann hits the bull’s eye with a much needed exposé of the so-called ‘free market.’ Anyone concerned about the future of our nation needs to read Screwed now."
Make no mistake of the matter that the EU insistence is Wall Street's insistence. Those who have the gold make the rules.
Agree; and what would make an interesting picture is when they try to swim while hoarding and carrying that Gold, in the eventuality that Global Warming brings the sea level to their doors! "Everyody out of the pool!" /sigh
The austerity plans lined out and the measures taken have dampened the entire economic system in
a variety of countries in the EU.
