The US government is preparing to unleash a wave of military violence around the world not seen since the 1930s and 1940s. The closest historical parallel to the foreign policy of the Bush administration, in its unabashed reliance on brute force and aggression, is that of the Nazis.

Dollar stands on a precipice
As the late Herbert Stein, former chairman of the US council of economic advisers, once said: "If something cannot go on forever, it will stop." This is a tale of irresistible force meeting immovable objects. The force is the growing pile of US liabilities. The objects are the low real returns in other big economies and the unwillingness of many governments to tolerate currency appreciation.

Like personal relationships, the modern world is out of balance. Nearness and distance, individuality and community could be redefined from a faith perspective. Jesus lived the tightrope walk of faith without falling in the chasms of resignation or aggression. This chapter is translated from the German. Happy New Year! May we refuse the false equation of faith and religion, the false standards of conformism and fashionable blaming and scapegoating!

Bu$h kills Labor Department report on layoffs
The Bush administration, under fire for its handling of the economy, has quietly killed off a Labor Department program that tracked mass layoffs by U.S. companies. "It was a visible number," said Gary Schlossberg, senior economist at Wells Capital Management in San Francisco. "In times like these, it was a good window on how businesses were cutting back." No longer. But then, businesses cutting back didn't exactly jibe with the White House's recent declarations that prosperity is right around the corner.

There is doublethink going on now as Oceania (the US and Britain) prepares for war against Iraq. We, the Winston Smiths of today, know that 15 years ago, the US and Britain were in alliance with Iraq. We know that the British Foreign Office sided with Saddam Hussein when he did those terrible things to his own people listed in Jack Straw's recent doublethink dossier.

Our quality of life peaked in 1974. It's all downhill now
The reason should not be hard to grasp. Our economic system depends upon never-ending growth, yet we live in a world with finite resources. Our expectation of progress is, as a result, a delusion. Capitalism is a millenarian cult, raised to the status of a world religion; like communism, built upon the myth of endless exploitation. Just as Christians imagine that their God will deliver them from death, capitalists believe that theirs will deliver them from finity. The world's resources, they assert, have been granted eternal life.

For the second year in a row, the aftermath of the stock market bubble of the 1990s has pushed US corporate bankruptcies to new records.
The combination of massive accounting fraud and the free spending of the past decade has brought down a string of household names in the past year, including five of the 10 biggest collapses on record. The 186 public companies which went bust had a massive $368bn in assets, dwarfing last year's then all-time record of $259bn.
