Casting the net – Radical Reform
Welcome to Casting the net, Liberal Conspiracy’s daily web review. As always, please feel free to share your own recommendations in the comments.
Blairwatch – On the conspiracy theorist who pesters 7/7 survivors because their accounts contradict his anti-semetic world view.
Rachel North – On the genuine progress being made by those working to reform fundamentalist radicals.
Mother Jones – Bush’s tax relief for the richest 1% in 2008 has been worth $79.5bn. More than the entire budget for the Dept. of Education and twice that of the Dept. of Homeland Security. via.
Richard Conniff – It’s time we dropped the word “tax”, and instead referred to social obligations as “dues”. Conniff tears a page from the conservative playbook.
Jock’s Place – Jock makes an interesting argument in favour of a Land Value Tax (or should that be Land Value Dues?).
Obsolete – Scything – yet in places soothing – commentary on the continued woes of Gordon Brown.
publicansdecoy – Is this a historical precipice, are we about to take a lunge backwards?
