Robert Reich is right, the so called conservatives aren't conservatives! They are regressives.

A real conservative would say we need to get out of the recession, the way you get out is to employ people directly! Because I'm a real conservative and not a regressive, I'm going to make sure government money is spent wisely!

They aren't socio paths, they are abusive perpertrators who define what other people are. Jill Stein said we need to break with this abusive crowd!

Jesse Jones made sure the reconstruction finance corporation books balanced making the depression era public bank a success.

Over the long term the banks make money too. They just don't want to report the write down on their books, take their loss in the short term.

Debt deflation is short term thinking which will crash the system.

Thom's Blog Is On the Move

Hello All

Thom's blog in this space and moving to a new home.

Please follow us across to hartmannreport.com - this will be the only place going forward to read Thom's blog posts and articles.

From The Thom Hartmann Reader:
"Thom Hartmann is a creative thinker and committed small-d democrat. He has dealt with a wide range of topics throughout his life, and this book provides an excellent cross section. The Thom Hartmann Reader will make people both angry and motivated to act."
Dean Baker, economist and author of Plunder and Blunder, False Profits, and Taking Economics Seriously
From The Thom Hartmann Reader:
"Thom Hartmann channels the best of the American Founders with voice and pen. His deep attachment to a democratic civil society is just the medicine America needs."
Tom Hayden, author of The Long Sixties and director, Peace and Justice Resource Center.
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
