Noam Chomsky: "Imperial Ambitions : Conversations on the Post-9/11 World" [American Empire Project] (Paperback), by Noam Chomsky, David Barsamian; Metropolitan Books (October 5, 2005): http://tinyurl.com/dp8lr "" Excerpt. © Reprinted by permission. All rights reserved. “America has formal democratic institutions, but they barely function. So it doesn’t matter if, say, 80 percent of the population thinks we should have some kind of national health-care system. It doesn’t even matter if the large majority regards this as a moral value. When commentators rave on about “moral values,” they’re talking about gay marriage, not the fact that decent health care for everyone is part of people’s moral values. And the reason those commentators don’t care is that it’s not their interest. They’re like me. They get fine health care. So it’s not an issue for them. But for the large majority of the population, it’s a serous issue, and it’s becoming even more so. When Medicaid is destroyed, as it probably will be, that’s going to really harm people. But people are unorganized: they’re not in unions, they’re not in political associations, there are no political parties in which they participate. They’re isolated. The genius of American politics has been to marginalize and isolate the population so it can’t act in its collective interest.” "" 2. Lew Rockwell: "We Have Nothing To Fear But Fear Mongers Themselves", by Kirk W. Tofte: http://tinyurl.com/cqbgt "" No two Americans have more different philosophies regarding political economics than Lew Rockwell and Noam Chomsky. Lew is, of course, one of our leading Libertarian thinkers. Chomsky is a New Left Liberal. Yet when it comes to their anti-war activism of many decades, Rockwell and Chomsky are brothers in arms – or should we say, "brothers against arms." Reading Chomsky’s new book, Imperial Ambitions, is like dumping two shots of espresso into a cup of lewrockwell.com’s morning coffee. Imperial Ambitions contains nine transcripts of interviews with Noam Chomsky conducted by David Barsamain from March of 2003 through February of this year. They are delightful reads and convey the quintessential Chomsky – informed, committed, brilliant, humorous and hopeful. As an aside, it should be noted that the interview approach is a wonderful way to format the essence of the writings and activism of Chomsky in a way that makes it easier to comprehend his overall thinking. Wouldn’t the American public benefit as much by reading a book that utilized transcriptions of similar interviews with Lew Rockwell? ""
