Thanks!!

Sat. a.m. 5/16/09. Great minds think alike: a very large THANKS!! for your piece on credit unions. Over the past month, I've sent out this message countless times:

WHAT TO DO WITH THE BANKS?

TURN THEM INTO CREDIT UNIONS!!

I don't flatter myself that this had any influence, but it's so damned OBVIOUS!!

The reason that Obama doesn't turn to the credit unions, is that they were probably not contributors to his campaign. As for all the disappointed lovers, alas, one can only say "I told you so." Obama was hired to try to rescue capitalism from itself yet one more time; otherwise, he would never have been allowed to run.

The only answer, in my opinion, is the General Strike, but the consciousness for that does not exist in this country. How do we begin to build that?

Keep up your good work; we need you!!
