The Lessons of the Great Depression? Don’t blame yourself.
From an interview with Studs Terkel, who died recently at 96:
“My mother ran a hotel, the Wells-Grand Hotel, for men, just outside Chicago’s skid row. Skilled workers. Mechanics. Guys with jobs here and there. Some retired. It was fine. The lobby in the hotel was empty in the daytime. It was just a little room, [...] -

The anger started in Bolivia where the people felt stripped out of their “material inheritance and natural resources”, and will definitely soon inflame the world. It’s official now Europe is preparing to a massive attack on individual tap water consumption. Great Britain launched the offensive in proposing to tax the tap water upon the volume consumed. [...]

the awakening of China
To the example of Europe (the 30 glorious in France), of the USA (the post-war era), China is awakening after too many years of sleep.

Short Memories for Lengthy Problems
A sense of jubilation and hope has been hovering over a vast majority of the world since last Tuesday’s festivities like a dense fog. Or is that smog? Who can tell anymore.

the addiction is internal
We Americans love our things. I’ll admit it. I spent this weekend running around frantically, on a mad mission to find the perfect gift for two special people on their birthdays. I drove across town several times as I searched for the perfect item. At one point during the day, I got so stressed by [...]

project 10 to the 100th
Google, the billion dollar corporation whose many hands are steeped in everything the far-reaching tubes of the internet have to offer, has something new for all of us. And by all of us, I mean the entirety of the world.
