This is a particular political interest of mine, though I'm no monetary economist. See EPI's book on financial reform. See also Jane D'Arista's (Boston College) magnum opus on the US banking system (2 volumes). A leading activist in this area is my friend Tom Schlesinger of the Southern Finance Project (PO Box 334, Philomont VA 20131, 540-338-7754). Other organizations include the National Community Reinvestment Coalition (202-628-8866), National Peoples Action, and ACORN. The latter are more interested in regulation whereas Tom is more balanced between monetary policy and regulatory concerns. Go get 'em. MS ==================================================== Max B.
