Are there any anti-imperialists out there? Are there people who recognize America is an empire, an imperial power at the service of a wealthy elite?

After years of non-stop media reports on how much North Korea was a no-good, hell-hole that was living in the Dark Ages with no hope in sight, the AP snapped us out of the reverie. Alas, it appears that Pyongyang "glitters". What the.....I thought they didn't even have power!!

I have noted a tendency when Communism or Socialism is discussed to immediately bring up the millions of lives lost under various regimes.

Can we talk about death by capitalism?

This is a short diary. I hope more people are beginning to understand that what Chris Hedges keeps saying is fundamentally true: that in today's political system, there is no way to vote against the interests of Goldman Sachs.

Obama's plan to cut Social Security and Medicare is a plan to cut the social welfare state. Let's not try to spin it any other way. What these programs require is expansion (SS benefits are not particularly generous for what is supposed to be the wealthiest country on the planet) and the Medicare age should be lowered, not means tested.

Anyway, this is exactly what the banker elites wants and whatever they want, Obama does his very best to deliver.

I've never posted a diary before but the response to Hugo's death has brought me out of hibernation. When it comes to Hugo Chavez, it appears as if people do not let those pesky things called facts get in the way. I've seen endless comments about economic mismanagement without any statistic or historical analysis to back it up. There's a reason why he won in 13 of the last 14 elections/referendums.
