Devils In The Details

The currently proposed legislation under discussion in the US Congress - the one proposing to bail out Wall Street – has more constitutional horrors in it that anyone thought.

Mike Whitney, writing for the anti-Establishment Left publication Counterpunch, reports on a provision within the legislation that would give the Secretary of the Treasury unlimited power regarding economic policies. He quotes directly from Section 8 of the proposed law, and it is frightening, to say the least.

We urge you to contact your Congressmen and Senators today, and demand they not back this proposed Wall Street bailout. Don't let the Congress abdicate any more power for the sake of either greed or cowardice. Thank you.
