Three Cheers for William Greider

Here's a bit of recommended reading: William Greider's 3/22/09 piece in the Washington Post, Obama told us to speak out, but is he listening?

William Greider appeared on Bill Moyer's show last Friday and elaborated on some of the points from the article: the bottom line is if we don't want the monied interests to get their way in Washington and everywhere, we're going to have to find a way to mobilize millions of people to take on business as usual. Greider believes that new laws may wind up enshrining corporatism (i.e., government run by the corporations) as our form of government.

Here's the link to the Moyers interview.
