Doyle;
Ignoring the insult, there are two problems with the claim, one -
timing, what is the limit we are talking about? A month? Why the rush?
Two - What is the plan we support? Not the plan they'll implement,
what do we support? I assume the current plan will put austerity on
the country. Why accept this? There is a political purpose to
thinking about solutions. It builds a movement. Now whether or not
someone tries to answer that question here, there will be efforts
elsewhere to answer this question and Dean Baker's comments are a start.
I reject the premise our only hope is the bailout. Our position is to
build a left movement. We have no real power and thus the luxury to
advocate good sense. For example, what's the rush. What is a good
plan are tenable and realistic political alternatives.
thanks,
Doyle Saylor
