James K. Galbraith had a book a number of years ago which covered important subjects necessary for us to understand now. Perhaps you saw it; I missed it.
In reading the reviews of this book early this morning I was taken with the clarity of thinking and the accurateness of the reporting of a very important period in history -- the Bush II Presidency.
I was especially impressed with the analysis of economic conditions and manipulations. This is the history we must remember, digest, and understand before moving into the next election. With the victory of the Right in Britain this year, we must be clear about the same kind of forces which are at work here.
Incidentally, I find the word "unbearable" in the title of the book -- Unbearable Cost -- to be exactly the right term. What went on then was virtually unbearable; it had to end. In some ways there was a change when Pres. Obama came into office. But there has not been enough of a change. If a book like Unbearable Cost can help make us clearer and more certain of our direction, we should take it in, value it, and act upon it. The time is short; the moment is now.
