"The Bard, Barred'' in The Wall Street Journal, November 4, 1998, p A22, reports that drama Professor Jared Sakren has now sued Arizona State University for racial discrimination. He argues that his firing resulted from his European descent and his use of works written by male European playwrights. Professor Sakren was fired by radical feminists within ASU who objected to his use of the works of a "sexist European canon'' - William Shakespeare.
"The Oncoming Monetary Collapse'' by Lawrence M. Parks, Vital Speeches of the Day Vol. 65, No. 1, available from FAME, 211 East 43rd Street, New York, NY 10017-4707, reports that U. S. fractional reserve banking (guaranteed by tax money) has created $5 trillion out of thin air and underwrites $60 to $70 trillion in derivative speculation by banks (guaranteed, without limit, by tax money). Federal Reserve Chairman Greenspan (who implements this program) has called this lender-of-last-resort use of tax money a "moral hazard.'' Since 1940, the American fiat money system (a system that has failed hundreds of times in many countries) has reduced the value of the dollar by 95%. If increases in American productivity stolen by this system are included, then the value of the dollar has dropped by 99% during the past 60 years. Americans save very little. Why should they?
"Flagrant Foul'' in The Wall Street Journal, December 23, 1998, p A14, reports that the Consumer Product Safety Commission has recalled more than 10 million toy basketball sets. The sets have been declared a hazard because, since the sets' introduction in 1976, one child has strangled in the netting. The Journal calculates that this mortality rate is one thousand times less than that faced by an American each time he rides in automobile and asks, "What's next - shoe laces?''
"No Nation Can Survive Cultural Rot'' by Charley Reese in Conservative Chronicle, October 21, 1998, p 11, available from Box 37077, Boone, IA 50037. Reese says "I'm not optimistic, but if there is a solution to the problem of social gangrene, the first step must be to shoot the television set. It's difficult for any parent to compete with a multibillion-dollar persuasion industry employing some of the best creative talent in the world. Never underestimate the influence of this pervasive form of communication. It is very good at what it does. It can sell toothpaste and it can sell cultural rot.
"The second step is to get the children out of the government educational system. It will never be reformed. Control of it will never be returned to local parents. It is an instrument of the state - state-funded, state-staffed, state-controlled. It preaches the state religion, which at the time is secular egalitarianism.''
"Missile Defense for Populations. What does it take? Why are we not doing it?'' by Angelo M. Codevilla, published by the George C. Marshall Institute, October 15, 1998, 1730 K Street NW, Suite 905, Washington, DC 20006. The few antimissile systems being developed by the United States have been deliberatelyengineered downward by order of the Clinton Administration - so that they will not be able to defend the people of the United States. This is more serious than perjury. It is treason. People who live in fear are easily controlled.
"The Coming Great War'' by Richard J. Maybury. See http://www.chaostan.com or write to Henry-Madison Research, P.O. Box 84908-D, Phoenix, AZ 85071. Maybury describes the downside potential in Asia and Africa. Codevilla shows how this nightmare might be averted - if the U. S. deploys space-based strategic defense.
