Get your tickets to "Avataristan" NOW! They cost only $100 Billion a year, plus some lives of people you probably don't know (soldiers and Marines and Afghanis ... who cares?) It satisfies your need for entertainment - What a bargain!

The first things rich people purchase with their wealth is insurance against the the loss of wealth. Protection of their wealth so that they need not share with others. Sure there are exceptions but look at who contributes to campaigns, it is mostly the top fraction of 1%. (a) they have the most purchasing power (b) they achieve the best bang for their buck.

The time has come for a third party. Both Democratic and Republican parties are toxic. This health care travesty is bringing both down. We need a third party movement that will be free of the corporate shackles.

And by the way is Rahm Emanuel Obama's Rasputin?

From Cracking the Code:

"In Cracking the Code, Thom Hartmann, America’s most popular, informed, and articulate progressive talk show host and political analyst, tells us what makes humans vulnerable to unscrupulous propagandists and what we can do about it. It is essential reading for all Americans who are fed up with right-wing extremists manipulating our minds and politics to promote agendas contrary to our core values and interests."

—David C. Korten, author of The Great Turning: From Empire to Earth Community and When Corporations Rule the World and board chair of YES! magazine

From The Thom Hartmann Reader:

"Thom Hartmann seeks out interesting subjects from such disparate outposts of curiosity that you have to wonder whether or not he uncovered them or they selected him."

—Leonardo DiCaprio, actor, producer, and environmental activist

From Cracking the Code:

"Thom Hartmann ought to be bronzed. His new book sets off from the same high plane as the last and offers explicit tools and how-to advice that will allow you to see, hear, and feel propaganda when it's directed at you and use the same techniques to refute it. His book would make a deaf-mute a better communicator. I want him on my reading table every day, and if you try one of his books, so will you."

—Peter Coyote, actor and author of Sleeping Where I Fall
