That is an exceptional article. Some many jewels are within it -

"he basic problem today is that nearly everyone is in debt. This is the problem in Europe too."

"The banking system’s alternative to 'the road to serfdom' thus turns out to be a road to debt peonage."

"Every Democratic congressional committee chairman has to pay to the Party $150,000 to buy the chairmanship. This means that the campaign donors get to determine who gets committee chairmanships. This is oligarchy, not democracy. So the system is geared to favor whoever can grab the most money."

"Today’s economic problem is systemic. This is what makes any solution so inherently radical."
